When there is complete darkness – represented by the colour black in the painting – only one thing can make you move forward and come out of that misery. It may be extremely small but highly potent – it is the optimism in you (white dot). Without this minute dot in its mind, mankind cannot move forward when faced with difficulties.

Optimism

When there is darkness all around you
This little lamp says - I am there to show you the light-get going
When your path is strewn with pebbles and thorns
This narrow and clear way says - I am there for you to walk on-get going
When there are wild animals waiting for you in all corners of your world
This small cage says - I am there to trap them-get going
When you are tired and unable to move
This energy booster says - I am there to give you strength-get going
When you are thirsty on the way
This one drop of water says - I am there to quench your thirst-get going
When you are alone and nobody is willing to walk with you
This tiny friend says - I am there to give you company-get going
When there is an ocean before you to cross
This humble boat says - I am there to help you-get going
When your heart hesitates to go ahead fearing all the obstacles to tackle
This wisdom in you says - these can be surmountable-get going
When there is no hope left in your life
This minute dot says - I am still there-get going
When everything and everybody else pulls you back
This tiny optimism in your mind is the only reason why you " get going ".
