An introduction to Shadows .............................

The only person that never leaves you in what ever life condition that you may in is your SHADOW. 




whether you are in a sorrowful moment, bad mood, when ever you become nothing or something,  you wins or you lose, when ever you are defeated, when ever you are cheated, when ever you are suspended, when ever you are suspected, when ever you are trusted, when ever you are abandoned, when ever you are neglected this your friend 'SHADOW' never leaves you. 

further ..............

even when you noticed or realized that your wallet is empty and not a single penny that you can find for some grain, there is one comes or stays behind that is your own shadow. 

whether you are struggling to live or calm down at any moment or situations of your life, the shadow of your never goes away. the others might stand up and may leave the premises keeping you alone at where ever you are residing ,within or outer of any spaces, in what ever may frustrated mind conditions check out your shadow is still with you. it does not matter whether you are checking in or checking out in any of your journeying, travelings the shadow is perhaps your behind or at a side watching , observing you thinking that you might need your own shadow. 

i am not fully aware whether foot path- readers get sometimes confuse with my these type thoughts .............. still i like to share them, what ever may come to my mind with you all - friends not just to ease my mind at any moments or situations of living but thinking that you may find something in it that one day you think that you may need when dealing with others in your lives.    

where ever you go what ever you do check who is coming behind that is ' your shadow' 

yet i do not know whether the shadow understands you or you understand your own shadow. not just because it does not provide any pictures in particular with certain colours of outfits you wear, or the genuineness of what you wear. it does not get the colour of what you wear. 

example 01 - shadow never shows the colour co-ordinations of what one wears 



and the shadow of your own never says anything whether you are thin or fat in your size of what you bear within.  the term shadow can be applied to ones day day life or this can be identified or discussed in many different ways, the facets of shadows.  
some applies it as something 'negative' some discuss things equalizing this term dark side of ones life for instances some use it in a different way,  ' anduru sewaneli' = dark shadows 
some use this term to explain how close some people are with each other. think of the term 'parents' they never neglect you or leave you when you are in a deep trouble. they are ones who comes first when you need them and the ones leaves last. 

i have read many books in my life time i very much enjoying reading the 'prefers' or thanking pages of the books also like very much to read the last page of the book including the last page of the cover page, mostly.

So in most of these intro pages, the authors, mostly dedicate their books to those who have given them tremendous support to complete or publish what they were compiling or writing with so much hopes or with respect, and during such dedications they don't forget to state 'sewanella wage mage langinma siti mage ____________  ____________ ( they write the name of the person, family member, spouse, children)  for my ever loving who was always with me like my shadow ______________ 

so in these dedications of ones life they use this word ' shadow', very often, i have noticed .

example 02 - shadow never shows the colour co-ordinations of what one wears 


i have read some of the articles written in Sinhala there they often use these set of words ' Yuddaye anduru sewaneli' ( dark shadows of the wars).  i think the writers are using such wording to explain things in order to provide a better picture of what they are trying to explain. not only writers but also all other speakers who ever in the communication networks or even the citizens or civilians in their day to dialogues.   

i do not like to use this term in a negative way.

i like the way that it appears behind or at a side of ones walking or in their stills.


an introductions are basically very shorter compared to what you explore in other pages, the middle paras of ones life. there he/she - reader can find sub headings, various sub analysis of various teeny weeny subjects or big huge tall subjects. applying them appropriately is what they have to do alone with proper, better understanding. there is little that others can do to colour or paint ones life there is a lot still to be done in every ones life let's focus or apply what i say towards, to the term 'self'. 

when the day arrives for anyone to depart this world saying 'ayubowan' to the place where they first began their life journey and from the ones they have associated with finally can not ask their shadows to stay that never happens because the very same day ones shadow too disappears. that is inevitable and that is the life truth of journeying of people in this sansara. but my dear friends what will remain or last here even though our shadows goes with lets say with me me for instance saying farewell to you what i do here or there only will remain at least for few days, couple of months or couple of years i don't think that everything might last until the last day of this world that again reminds me the temporality, impermanence  of life and things attached with our lives.    

This is an introduction only i think we can discuss this term, 'shadow' in a more wider way may be in the future i will post something under this very same title 'topics' with more organized thoughts ..........................
