The dark nights of the soul can come to us all at any moment. Since Easter this year, I have unexpectedly faced feelings of anxiety and depression.

Depression seeks silence. It tries to navigate our darkness and find a flickering light within. Even in the darkest places, the brightest light can shine.

Easter is a time of renewal and rebirth, so perhaps I needed to listen to and connect with my inner light, nurturing it so that it may shine more brightly.

Depression makes you act to fulfil your unfulfilled desires!!

The uncertainty it brings often manifests as a certainty of sadness. As the self plunges into a whirl of confusion, the soul seeks understanding. Solitude becomes a companion.

The Blessing of Depression

I have discovered that there is a blessing to be found within depression. It can motivate us to pursue unmet desires, bringing new focus and opening new paths.

Below, I share a poem to help break down depression and inspire simultaneously.

Today, I am sharing just a short blog. It’s 3:30 a.m. here, so I must get back to sleep. I hope you do, too — with hope in your heart!

Feel inspired by more of my poetry in my book, A Leap of Faith.

With love
