Struggle


There is so much darkness, so much pain, so much sorrow tempered throughout the entirety of our lives. It seems sometimes enough to rip us apart from the inside out, exposing our beating heart to a watching world.

But sometimes light and hope and joy do that too. Hope that beats through the arteries and veins with enough force to break your heart. Joy that fills your lungs so full that oxygen isn’t even needed. The eternal struggle of darkness and light deep inside us. Sorrow tempered with hope, joy tempered with pain, darkness tempered with light. Our humanity, tempered.
