Recently in a conversation with my friend I described my "depression" as like a darkness that takes over inside me, one I can't stop or even control. Upon hearing the words darkness he sent me this text. He found this qoute on the back of a card that he got when he ordered something from a clothing company. Pretty sweet.
"Amidst the struggles of this reality I know, I see my failures, my sweet failures. My downfalls, my stabbing pains. Again face:face with the ground. I have nowhere to run to hide, in darkness I have stumbled in circles. The disease will not be shaken,
neglected.....
My rage,selfishness,power cannot cut it out of my system, it has bcome the shadow I see when I turn from the light.
There is a spark, a flame, a beauty I can't deny, a beauty inside my eyes. This beauty has effortlessly captured my every desire. What have I left but to surrender, to be consumed in light, to let my darkness dissolve in the beauty of light."
He finishes the text "G-d bless you Josh" and you He has. More than I know and more than I sometimes show grattitude for. I am blessed to even know a glimpse of the love of G-d.
