One of the greatest lessons we get to learn in life is that we are often attracted to a bright light in another person. Initially, this bright light is all we can see because its so appealing it seems just right. But after a while, as our eyes acclimatise, we notice that this light has its shadow - usually just as large as its brightness.
When we encounter this shadow, we have two choices: We can either shine our own light on the shadow or we can run from it continuing our search for a shadowless one.
If we run from the shadow, we invariably decide to run away from the light that created it. And we soon find out that our light is the only light illuminating the space around us. Then, at some point, as we look closer at our own light,noticing something out of the ordinary - Our light is casting a shadow too. And that too a bigger and darker one than some of the other shadows we've seen.
But IF, on the other hand, instead of running away from the shadow, we walk towards it, something amazing happens. Our own light, lights the shadow, and likewise, the light that created this shadow casts its light on ours. Hence, both the shadows begin to disappear. Not completely, of course, as both contemplate each other. As a result every part of the two shadows illumined, disappear.
In the end, we find more of that bright beautiful light in the other – which is precisely what we have been searching for all along.
