Crown

In the middle of the night. When all lights went off. The sky wore its black color and all the houses in town went dark. It was, as if colors have been made to be seen in the day only. Under the heat of the sun, and hide when the lights went off. He was speaking to his wife late that night, with only a candle lit on. She said: "But, you are not speaking about the day, night or the mysteries of the universe. Are you?". He said: "Just like the usual, you know things ahead". Then he added: "It was the day were everyone gathered. Had a feast. Then, I came in and had a short speech. Just before, they put the crown on. I felt like, if all the blessings of the universe had been given to me at once. It is true what they said, with every blessing there is a curse to be worried about. Just like the bright days and dark nights". He paused for a moment and then continued: "It never seemed enough with everything. When one tries to be fear and find equality amongst everyone. There is always that margin, where it seemed less than perfect, and probably, unfair to some. Sometimes, we know that adversity is part of life. But, the excitement of a moment, makes us look the other way". He then stopped and told her that it is getting late and we probably need to get some rest before travelling tomorrow.
