This is a small & beautiful story.
It is said that once Darkness went before God. Placing her head on His feet, she began to cry. God asked. ”What is the matter, what is bothering you?”
”I am very unhappy?” she said. ”I am terribly scared of your Sun. Every morning, as soon as he gets up, he begins to chase me. By evening when I am completely exhausted, he somehow lets me alone. I hardly manage to rest the night when I find him standing at my door. Then again the chase starts. He has been after my life ever since time began. What have I done that he harasses me so?”
God sent for the Sun and questioned him: ”Why you erase Darkness? What has she done?” ”Darkness?” asked the sun. ”Who is Darkness? I have never met her. Where does she live? I have never set eyes on her, so how can I harass her? At least I should be acquainted with my foe! Please call her so that I may beg her forgiveness and clear the misunderstanding.”
God could not persuade Darkness to come before the Sun.
