The wood was asleep, the path through it was dark and winding. There was not a thing stirring, the long twilight was just disappearing and the silence of the night was covering the earth. Through the small opening among the leaves were the stars, brilliant and very close.
Darkness of the night is as necessary as the light of day. The welcoming trees were withdrawn into themselves and distant, they were all around but they were aloof and unapproachable, they were asleep, not to be disturbed. In this quiet darkness, there was growth and flowering, gathering strength to meet the vibrant day, night and day were essential, both gave life, energy, to all living things. Only man dissipates it.
