and Then There was Light...

I've been in the light for almost 3 years.  I choose the light when the only twenty year plan I could envision was stagnation in muddled waters.  Death and darkness lingered in my soul, like unwelcome house guests.  Yet that small ray of light, which dwells in the unknown places of my deepest innermost heart, warmed the coldness enough to sustain a glimmer of hope.

That hope turned to faith and then I believed in the light.

That small ray of light burns like the sun and is much more powerful than the darkness that seems to engulf it brilliance. It is the light that cuts the darkness and the darkness cannot overtake the light.

I've been in the light for almost three years.  The beam of its rays are so bright that my eyes are just beginning to adjust.  I can only open my eyes a sliver, and that's just for moments at a time.

I've known the light, I'm no stranger to its goodness. 

However, this darkness was upon me for a six or seven year stretch. It blinded me to options and choices and I couldn't see my path...

My eyes are still adjusting to the light, which means I still experience the darkness, but the light is so bright its energetic force pulls me towards itself.

And then there was light...
