Find your own light in the darkness

Updated: Sep 22, 2024

A guest post from @adriannasd07 posted in our Instagram channel




As she stares into the dark void in front of her, heart pounding, she thinks of all the possibilities both great and bad that await here. Taking a deep and steady breath, she takes the plunge and walks onwards, black filling her vision. Fear and uncertainty almost make her turn back around, but then she sees a light seeping through the darkness... it gets brighter and brighter the longer she stays in the void. Then eventually no darkness remained, and all she sees is light.
This darkness, a feeling of being trapped with no sense of direction, has always been a major fear of many. With this story, a girl takes one small step to face her fears, and she sees that the more steps she takes, the more her fears start dwindling little by little. Don't let those fears consume you, take that small step and find your light in the darkness!
