The child in us remembers trying to jump away from our shadow on a sunny day. We jumped and our shadow jumped. We swayed and our shadow swayed. At noon, we could leap on top of it. As the day lengthened, it grew longer. No matter how we looked at it, our shadow always came with us.
A shadow cannot be altered permanently by someone else's shadow. Similarly, we cannot take on the shadow of anyone else. We can claim only our own.
