When the dark starts calling your name

Ever feel that?

The dark.

Like you don't have the heart you normally have.

The compassion.

The loving kindness.

The patience.

The forgiveness.

The whatever it takes to be a better human.

That the dark is calling your name.

That you are engaging in a conversation that you aren't going to win, with some sort of dark entity that is using up all the oxygen in the room. 

Suddenly you notice you've allowed cynicism to overpower your ability to see the best in yourself and the rest of the beings around you.

By you, I mean me.

So I'm looking for the light.

I know it's there, waiting for me.

It hasn't forgotten me.

I forgot it, momentarily.  

I let the noise and the worry and the fear get in the way of the things I know to be true.

That this world is worth loving, for all its darkness.

That there is a light shining in all of us.

One worth looking for

Love,

M
