We will all face darkness at some stage during our lifetime.
It could come from a physical or mental health illness, a relationship or family breakdown, or a job loss.
If you had a life ending illness, how would you cope? Would darkness take a heavy toll on you.
Would you challenge the darkness of illness to a duel and tackle it with an immense amount of vigour.
And hope that you came out the victor.
Some people who are suffering the scourge of illness will bring bright lights and happiness to others, by just being a loving angel and destroying the shadows lurking in corners.
These people will climb out of their dark chasm and bring a shower of light to others suffering in a very dark place.
A ray of sunshine to glow brightly for those who are unable to glow for themselves.
It is how we cope with darkness that defines us as a person.
Do not let the darkness disseminate through your life.
If you do, it will destroy you !
The dark times when self pity reigns and you just want to be by yourself are fine but eventually you will need to try and find the light.
That light may hit you in the face like a bright meteor, or it may rise slowly like a stunning start to a new day.
Then the darkness will disappear.
And that will be the beginning of a new life for you.
There will be a calmness and an awakening.
My darkness had me quite unsettled for some time.
But contentment eventually arrived.
I am happy with who I am and I am happy with the life that I have.
The darkness has brought about a new level of creativity, which I am immensely proud of.
Darkness is not a bad thing as it teaches you to respect all those wonderful sunny days .
We just need to know that we can destroy those dark shadows.
And we need to know, to just enjoy life.
