Dad?" Jesus asked.
"Yes, son?" God replied.
"What came before colors?" Jesus asked.
"What do you mean?" God asked.
"Well, before we had colors. What was there?" Jesus asked.
"We've always had colors," God said.
"What about the darkness then?" Jesus asked.
"That's black," God said.
"So colors come from black," Jesus said.
"Yes, if you want to keep your colors vibrant, you need to keep them in something black and then when they come out, they're beautiful and full of life," God said.
"Now that I know darkness is full of colors, I won't be afraid of it anymore," Jesus said.
God smiled, "You should never be scared of darkness. It's just a box with colors in. That's all."
Jesus laughed and smiled. He wasn't afraid anymore.
