Shadow is my silent companion

Everybody has a silent companion. My silent friend follows me everywhere I go until there are lights. It never talks or makes noise, yet it always follows me in silence. It is my best buddy, as it never abandons me.

Of these shadows, some people were afraid. They believe it to be a ghost. I never believe that there are ghosts. Shadows are used to give scary and mysterious figures in fairy tales and ghost stories. When a shadow appears near my window at night, I get up and turn on the light, but all I see is a moving branch of the actual tree.

What is causing these shadows to appear? It's a science: when light falls on an object and is obstructed, the space behind it that cannot receive light turns black. We call this shadows. In my childhood, I thought it was magic, but later I understood it was a simple science.

Shadow always imitates our actions. It jumps when we jump. Until there is light, the shadow never leaves us. Shadows cannot exist without light.

When the sun rises in the morning and sets in the evening, the shadows are long. However, the shadow gets quite short at midday, when the sun is directly overhead.

Good shadows are also produced by nature. On hot days, we seek cover from the sun by remaining beneath the shade of trees and buildings. We are kept cool and comfortable by the shadows cast by buildings and trees. The world is more beautiful because of these shadows.

Artists use shadows to create stunning images. In our childhood, we created many shapes on our wall, using our hands and the lights.

When we think deeper, the shadow is also a symbol. It reminds us that we have a hidden or quiet side in our lives. Therefore, we should always think that we have feelings that don't always show. Those quiet feelings are like our real shadow. Those are parts of our lives. They are following us like a shadow, and we must understand it. Then life will be easier.
