Your worst life experience is not always your worst case scenario
Life has a way of disemboweling
reality
Only to put it together again
Like a massive storm
Suddenly everything you thought you
knew about your life disappears
Inside the monstrous blanket of the
storm
It might be a death of a loved one
or just a phase in your life
It is not possible to know what
tomorrow holds anymore
A black veil covers all of your
being
Like a curse, everything is dark
You find yourself lost in the
whirlwind of uncertainty
This is the torturous dark night of
the soul
Many people will not survive this
hell hole
It breeds depression, suicidal
thoughts and all weird delusions
It is a place of misery,
hopelessness and pure terror
It takes pure faith or luck to
emerge on the other side
It feels like the most difficult
moment in your entire world
But it is a moment of transition
A time when life takes on a new
meaning
You have to hold onto the pillars of
hope and be fearless
Then like sunrise, a new day will
break
Out of the darkness
A new reality will emerge
Life will never be the same again
As we transverse these uncertain
times
Whether it's rising inflation or
Covid-19 disease
War, political turmoil or just a
broken heart
Be strong in spirit
It is your spiritual strength that
will give you the mental and physical strength to survive through the storm
