Darkness


We always bother about light..may be because it shows us the way..but have we so far tried to measure darkness?? I see light..I can even measure it..photodiodes, spectrometers and all that..but darkness?? How will it sound like “This bulb emits 40 Watt of Darkness”!! Strange thing about darkness is that..it seems to hide ..in corners, behind objects below furniture.. The only piece of darkness that comes forward often is our shadow..that too when the light is behind us.. Its easy to see how light and darkness walk together..but don’t see each other..Open your eyes..Its light..close them tight..its darker than anything can be..
Well then how can one define darkness?? Darkness is the absence of light?? Well that’s not fair..The definition of I cannot be “I am the one whoz not You” !! Then what is the absolute and precise definition of darkness? Lets define..Darkness is the twin of Light with some basic genetic differences..oh! not again!!! Then can't we define darkness without speaking of light?? Unfair again! Light has so many definitions … particle, wave, fields and all..but darkness?? There is no amount or wavelength of darkness..although it lurks on without even a proper definition.. Yet ..Darkness I find it firmer and stronger or even stranger than light..It has only one color..and a unique characteristic and that is “nothingness” Or is there something?! Why isn’t it that everywhere there’s light..then surely we can say darkness has a purpose which we may still don’t know! 
Here’s a question..light “clears” darkness..but can darkness wipe out light??
Another question..does light accompany darkness?? Or darkness always follows light?? OR is darkness “created” by light???
Oh no! Another Question..Light is an em field..is darkness a field? Or is it truly quantized?
Darkness! Darkness! Lead us to Light!

Life in a Quantum well

Life in a quantum well is all about little space, impenetrable boundaries and at every nanometers stopping and asking...How Far You Can Go Before You Stop..
Think to yourself.. how far is that far..till which you can go? How far do you ignore before you accept? And how far can you accept before you resist? How far can you resist before you let go? So..everywhere..there is somewhere we have to stop..like we all are living in a box!!

What is there in a quantum well?
A. Discrete energy levels..well dats obvious..our world is our work..our home..n max our driveway to workplace..and so..few people..few feelings..few botherations..few complications....discrete thoughts..discrete interests..
B. Isolation: Are we any better than an electron in an "infinitely deep" potential well?? From where even if we cry out loud..is there many to listen??? I guess not..all I see is that there’s wall all around us.. walls.. high..lofty..of expectations..obligations..egos..sky high walls of satisfactions..which are sure never to be crossed..impenetrable boundaries locking us inside..

So then how is Life in a Quantum well ?
Like electrons in an “infinitely deep potential well”..we are all loners in this quantized world. Inside..very much in our inside..there’s a locker room .. having a silver casket..with an ivory box containing a piece of our loneliness. Amidst the jostling fare of life...loneliness keeps humming from that small room..like a whistle you can only deny to hear..and the whistle gets stronger everyday..till we die..holding nothing but that casket..containing our very own..probably only OWN ..piece of our loneliness...


And then electron becomes light…
