"The closer the moth is to the flame, the higher the chance it'll burn." If you think the light could hurt the moth, but the moth thinks otherwise, who's to say it's not a happy ending? If the last thing the moth wanted to do was touch the light, death in the form of warmth and comfort comes upon touching it. Wouldn't it be a beautiful way to die, still?

Like a Moth to a Flame
"The closer the moth is to the flame, the higher the chance it'll burn." If you think the light could hurt the moth, but the moth thinks otherwise, who's to say it's not a happy ending? If the last thing the moth wanted to do was touch the light, death in the form of warmth and comfort comes upon touching it. Wouldn't it be a beautiful way to die, still?
