WHEN EVERYTHING GETS DARK

Is it dark right now? Do you feel stuck, trapped, unhappy in your life? Do your eyes only see in shades of black and white? Breathe. You’re going to be okay. First and foremost make sure you are safe and then hear me out. You aren’t in a bad place.

For it has been during my darkest times that I have developed my greatest strength. It has been on my most rock bottom states that I have written the most moving words from my heart. It has been on my loneliest days that I have cried the most healing tears. And it has been the days where I questioned if life was worth living that I realized giving up was never an option.

You have within you a priceless purpose and meaningful life – that is unconditional. And I promise that when all you see and feel is shadows suffocating your surroundings that you can hold on – one breath at a time – one breath at a time. Because soon enough you will realize that darkness is not what you fear – it’s yourself that you fear. And when you heal yourself – you will become a light in the dark and you will realize that black is simply one color of the rainbow. Hold on for that day. ~Britt
