Join Salim, a curious young boy, as he embarks on a journey to overcome his fear of the dark. With the guidance of his wise grandfather, Salim learns to see the wisdom and light hidden within the shadows, discovering that the unknown isn't as frightening as it seems.
In a peaceful night, as the moon shimmered in the sky, Salim sat beside his wise grandfather on the house balcony. The night had drawn its curtain, and the stars adorned the sky like scattered pearls. But Salim was glancing around nervously, as he feared the darkness. - Why must night come, Grandpa? Why can't it always be day? he asked softly. His grandfather smiled and gently patted Salim's shoulder.
- Imagine if the sun never set, my child. How would our eyes rest? How would our bodies sleep? his grandfather replied. Salim thought for a moment and said, - But I don't like the dark! I feel scared when night falls. His grandfather chuckled softly, pointing to the moon that lit the darkness with its gentle light.
- We don't fear the darkness itself, but what we can't see within it, his grandfather explained. - Darkness isn't an enemy, it's a time for rest and peace. Just as the sun burns to light the world, the moon reflects its light to guide the lost in the night. Salim listened carefully, trying to understand his grandfather's wisdom. - But I still don't see how darkness can be a blessing, he said hesitantly.
His grandfather sighed and gazed at Salim with wisdom. - Just as the body needs the night to calm, the heart needs moments of darkness to seek true light. - True light? What light do you mean? Salim asked, curiosity piquing his interest. - The light of knowing God, his grandfather replied. Salim pondered his words, feeling a sense of calm begin to wash over his fear.
- People fear the future because they don't know what will happen. It's like darkness to them, an unknown they can't see, so they imagine the worst, his grandfather continued. - But when someone truly knows God, they feel at peace even in the dark because they know He's with them, lighting their path even if they can't see it. Salim's eyes widened, as if he was beginning to understand something new. - So, darkness makes us search for light? Salim asked slowly.
His grandfather smiled warmly. - Yes, my dear. Just as shadows appear in the light, within every person is both light and darkness. And how wonderful it is to learn to love both! Trials and hardships are like darkness, making us seek God, and when we find Him, we find peace and comfort. Salim reflected on his grandfather's words, then looked at the bright moon in the sky. - So, I should learn not to be afraid of the dark, but to seek the light within it, Salim concluded with newfound confidence.
