Close your eyes right now. What was the first thing to pop into your mind?

Nothing. An empty black pit of absolutely nothing. And no, that does not mean I am some tortured depressed soul. A black nothing means a blank canvas. A new start. Nothing that I can turn into Something. Something great and magnificent, because the black covers up all past mistakes. It covers up the hideous scars and the things that I wish for no one to see. It doesn’t erase the past but it covers it. So I know what the past holds but I now have the opportunity to change it and move forward. A black pit of nothing is a coated new start. And honestly that is all I need right now.
