"Even a single lamp dispels the deepest darkness." - Mahatma Gandhi
We've all been there before.
In a dark, lonely place.
Lost and without direction.
Going through the motions.
Feeling hopeless.
Discouraged.
Empty.
Deeply unsatisfied.
It is a tough place to be.
A mental prison.
The more you dwell on it, the further you spiral into the darkness.
But know that there is greatness inside of each of us.
Greatness, however you define it.
It comes in all shapes and sizes.
It is different from person to person.
It will provide you fulfilment.
It will give you contentment.
It will bring the happiness you desire.
It will pull you from the darkest places.
You just have to be aware of it.
To start looking.
To practice introspection.
To talk to that person.
To read that book.
To research that topic.
To wake up early.
To take that leap of faith.
To take the first step.
The second step follows the first.
Then the third.
The very first step makes the biggest difference.
Strive to live, live to strive.
