Hide or Seek

It’s funny how we look at isolation and hiding as a protective measure but when just a little bit of light shines on us, scars appear and we become confused as to where they came from. Because in the darkness we hid ourselves from want we thought would harm us. We hid ourselves because we felt that was the best way to stay safe. We have become so blind and use to that darkness that we don’t realize that we are actually hiding ourselves from the truth. Fear kept us away from the true meaning of that Light. The love, hope, and nourishment of that Light…

And although that Light can be a little overwhelming at first, without it, one could not see what was really harming them. Interestingly, the darkness can only visually give you two things, outlines of images and any locations of light. So by staying in that darkness we essentially are committing self-harm. Now once we come to that understanding of this, we learn that this was half the battle. Then the question becomes, are we going to keep hiding in this darkness or go seeking that Light?
