2.4 Absence



But how do you expect me
To live alone with just me?
'Cause my world revolves around you
It's so hard for me to breathe
- No Air by Jordin Sparks

Reasons will not lead to solution
I will end up lost in confusion
I don't care if you really care
As long as you don't go
- Lovefools by The Cardigans

"how presence only has meaning with the aid of absence" - how true ... sometimes.

Does anyone/anything have to be absent/unavailable to know his/its true value? I think the imagination can make wonders too. Nice post kuya Niel. =)

I was thinking of meaning of words in general--how some words are defined by the absence or presence of certain attributes.

Like, evil is the absence of good; darkness is the absence of light.

You can also say you can't appreciate good without knowing evil.
