I'm grateful for shadows!
Shadows are evidence of light.
I think shadows, more often than not, get a bad rap. They're seen as the encroaching of darkness, the embodiment of the unknown despite the presence of light. But from the opposite view, they're the evidence of and guarantee for light. If there were no light, everything would be shrouded in darkness which is the absence of all light, and therefore there would be no shadows.
Shadows also provide an add dimension to everything we see. Without shadows our depth perception of what's in front of us would be thrown off. Without shadows the details and intricacies of the world around us, like the details of a watch or other piece of jewelry. And without shadows there would be no shade to break up the sweltering heat brought on by the sun.
