a note from the editor

Let

your shadows engulf you, don’t resist.

Observe

shadows as though they are not a result of

a light source but rather that they act of their own free will, moving where they please.

Watch

how they

love to drape their dark blanket over whatever they can, especially inside of us.

It

takes much practice to sculpt and refine the light

within ourselves so we can be sure the world perceives us the way we choose.

Our

shadows are the unfiltered

raw side of us that we often try to hide when it decides to reveal itself, which contradicts the world we live in, a world where we all seek truth.

When

you surrender to your shadows, they bring you

to places where the most intriguing beings thrive in total darkness.

They

allow you to see what history

there is to discover within the shadowy crevasses of a stone wall or the beauty of a dying flower.

They

show you how vast and velvety a cast shadow of a rose can be, how smooth it’s gradient or how clear and concise it’s edges are.

Everyone

has shadows, and this issue is about embracing

the beautiful truths that lurk within your dark side.

Drift

with your shadows,

Malorie Shmyr,

editor
