This essay is so insightful, realistically encouraging. Your depth of understanding of the
pain of others reveals roads you have traveled,
And waited and watched for the reassuring silver lining that inevitably approaches every cloud from behind.
And it comes as no surprise that you have discovered the one great secret- LOVE. When the days are long an darkness seems to have won, love for another, be it family, friend, pet, or the unseen Spirit always with you, brings back remembrance of why we carry on. Love does not allow one to doubt the unspeakable value and underlying joy of life, however long the darkness lingers.
