Conquering Darkness


As I step into the darkness of this world, I can see. I observe the blind and the needy for they truly are oblivious to light. But may their soul be purified, a chance to conquer darkness will arise. I know of light, for he is my father. I know of evil, for he stars as my temtation. Although, once upon a time, I was the blind and needy. I was consumed by the enemy. But this enemy was weak and the light had pure strength. I braced the opportunity to conquer darkness. This victory, I marveled in it. And so I say, as I step into the darkness of this world, light is on my side. For I have conquered darkness.

<p><span style="font-size:16px;"><span style="font-family:times new roman,times,serif;">Aside from a few grammatical errors (which can affect the flow of the piece), your message is charming :) You have had experience of the struggle behind the piece, so the phrase "[a]lthough, once upon a time, I was the blind and needy" is more powerful.
