This is a piece of writing that I wrote in my journal back in January 2022. I was in a lot of pain, fear, hurting and writing for me was a way to escape, to process my emotions and connect to myself. This piece of writing is for anyone who may be in a dark space right now.
I will not walk in front of you
But beside you
Through your pain and hurt
And darkness
I will be there
Holding a light in front
So we both may see
And tread
A little along the path
You do not need to see the full path
Or what lies at the end of the path
For now all I ask of you
Is to trust
In yourself
That by placing one foot in front of another
That you will reach your destination
At times the darkness
May feel heavy and as if you are
Engulfed
Yet this is temporary
I cannot say exactly how long
It may last
Yet I will say it is not permanent, nor your permanent state
There is light within you
And if you cannot find it
We will send another
To help you find your own light
And in so doing
Later on
Your light will help another
I am sharing this here for anyone who is having a rough time right now or in a dark space. If you feel called to share these words with another, then feel free to share this post. We are currently in a time where we need to be there for each other. If we can be there, even for one person, through this time, we will be fulfilling our purposes.
