Understanding

Real understanding manifests as gratitude. It says, "I am the other half of all you love." "I am all you love." Then darkness and a crippling pain spreads from your heart through all your limbs. Exasperation pumped through every artery and vein. Your perception becomes piercing, you are gifted a glance of introspection. There is no longer what once seemed inevitable, but now an appreciation for that on display as undeniable.
