Veils, hiding, light and shadows...

This is my entry for #monomad challenge by @monochromes

We are in Pakistan, in villages and Karakorum range mountains.

Every day, another veil covers us, until evening.
Sleep, like dreams, helps to 'unveil' us, removing the layers that separate us from the outer world.
Like Tao symbol, black can't exist without white, good things can't exist without bad ones. We are in the middle, embracing the two faces of ourselves, every day.

We hide from fears, but we chase them, we recall them from distance, unaware of our destiny. Like this girl. Curiosity, fear. She called me back, after that she disappeared, hidden from me, behind the walls of this street track.

We are seeking the invisible. Invisible things, like lackness, hope, love, are the most important things of our life.
Important things are always priceless, and free. They can't have a material value, but they are the pillars of our inner life.

Every day, we hide from the sun.

Every night, the sprout inside us seeks light in the abyss.

Can we have the courage to stay in touch with our inner soul?
