There Is Light Beyond The Darkness

When we are not balanced, the world often feels as if it is tilting off it's axis. It's as if our life is not quite what it should be and we have no control in righting what is wrong. Nothing makes sense anymore and it takes all of our energy to understand why we can't handle things that we normally would. It leaves us depleted and worn out. Everything we do and say doesn't come out as we intend it to. There seems to be room for only frustration, sadness, and anger. Try as we might, the darkness we find ourselves in feels too deep to climb out of. Without a light to guide us and lead us out of the darkness, it is difficult to find our way. Although we know that the universe shines bright beyond the fog, at this time it's difficult to imagine what the warmth of the light would feel like. It is our challenge to find a way out of the dark place that we have imprisoned ourselves in. Today, take responsibility for where you are. Acknowledge and respect that you may not be where you feel you should be. Work through the mist or if you feel unable to, get help. Although you may feel alone, there is someone standing next to you that you can lean on. Hold out your hand and let others lead you out of the darkness.

Although we'd like our path to be smoother,
there is beauty if we look beyond the rocks...
