When your darkest times seem the most hopeless, your brightest light will hold the most hope.
Illumination only takes the littlest bit of room to show itself.
A horizon full of known unknowns wanting to be reconfirmed. We once had lived in a place that we yearn to discover more of. The urge to arrive at the places we envision while holding the satisfaction of having earned our way. Once we receive enough grief to push through everything that shut us down, we hold onto the light that begs for us to use it and we let it guide our way. We do this while we search with everything it takes to reach a place where light is everywhere that our heart has told us we deserve. It is then that we let our heart hold our light so we do not have to worry anymore.
I sat in a pit of darkness that had thick walls with no imperfections. Or so I thought. Every bottom I hit shook the room and cracked the foundation that my demons lived inside of. I could have stayed trapped forever if I wanted to, but I decided to get back up and open my eyes time and time again. A glimpse of sadness blinded by a horizon of light that held more beauty than anything I have ever known.
It takes a simple thought of living better to let a shimmer of light a chance to show itself. Even light seen out of the corner of your eye can fill a room and show the way. The emotional beatings over time will let us hold on to anything remotely capable of providing the happiness within seeing parts of ourselves again. It is then that we can finally hold on to what is needed to love ourselves enough to get back up for the last time and step out of misery.
What will you do today to use that little glimpse of light to create a reason to fully see your hearts message and your souls direction?
