Childhood

What's curious is, Lightside doesn't even have any form of childhood trauma to justify the existence of a split (Darkside)personality. He wasn't his father's favorite, but his father wasn't abusive to him in any way. His uncle occasionally touched him inappropriately, but never really sexually harassed him. His mother died early, but she died peacefully & naturally. He was bullied in school, but he never got beaten severely. And yet, here I am. Proof of the existence of something evil residing within him. Is it possible he was born with me? No. I know I surfaced much later. But when, exactly? We all have a need for a reason to our existence. It's human nature. Is that not why man invented God?

Introduction

Hi. My name is Darkside. I'm actually not a real person. Or rather, I'm not a whole person. I'm a fragment of someone's personality. I'm not really sure if that makes me one of those split personalities. Lightside(my reverse persona or the dominant persona) is a real person. He has an easy, good paying job. He's in a stable relationship with a woman who thinks the world of him. He even has his own blogger account. But he doesn't use the name Lightside. He uses his real name. I just call him Lightside. Anyway, recently, Lightside has been thinking of doing some really bad things. And he read somewhere that when a person expresses these dark emotions through art, or in this case, through blog, he will not act out on these dark desires in the real world. That is how I have been conceived. I am here to spare the world from the wrath of my Lightside. For so long as I exist in here, in this virtual prison of sorts, I can't really hurt anyone,...can I?
