If it's Always Night, Why Need Eyes?

(A brief note: I'm tired right now so if this is kind of choppy and disjointed , that's why.)

Suffering is unfortunately a part of being human. Before you go stop reading this because it sounds so obvious, please bear with me. I have had some really, really tough times in my life. Some people go through life without a lot of issues, but most people suffer a lot. Sometimes our troubles and suffering can last for a long, long time. Like for this person here.

This person can be you, me, or anyone. They are traveling through life and the sun is shining. When disaster strikes or something else happens that makes them sad, it becomes night. For whatever reason, they're sad and in pain. Storms in their heart kick up and they feel the sting of despair, and possibly depression (whether clinical or not). This someone continues to travel through his or her night. Instead of ending quickly, the night persists for what feels, to them, like an eternity. This person may start to hate happiness altogether, his or her heart becoming rocky with biterness and dissapointment. At some point, this somebody might wonder why emotions are needed at all. He or she might feel that emotions are useless, just like this person felt happiness is useless. This person says, "It has been and always will be night, so I don't need my eyes (heart, all emotions, feeling, etc) anymore." Because if one is always sad, why does one need emotion at all? Yet night does not last forever.

One day the sun will rise again. Even if it's for one fleeting moment when the Dark scatters and the sun shines in this person's life, it does happen. Joy fills them and happiness returns. Yes, most of this someone's life can be full of night and despair. It is very sad when someone's life is almost nothing but night. Yet at some times the sun does shine. We humans are made to feel emotion. This includes feeling happiness and joy. It doesn't matter if a person's heart is turned against happiness, or tries to kill his or emotions. Emotions will always been there, they cannot be gotten rid of. Depression does hurt, and despair can really wear away at a person. Happiness and joy can lift you up out of despair, so you shouldn't hate it and think it's dumb or silly. If we don't have happiness to counteract the despair (the night), we are even more miserable with nothing to relieve it. When it comes to all emotions, the sun will rise again.

So if you get rid of you eyes, metaphorically speaking, how can you ever see the dawn?
