"... believe in light when we are
covered by clouds."
Mark Nepo
There are times when we awaken and our heart is already heavy without even knowing if the sun is shining or the rain is in a downpour. Mark Nepo states: " Some days I wake with a cloud around my heart, and it dulls everything except the weight I carry deep inside."
If we but observe Nature when the sun is hidden behind clouds, we learn the trees do not wither, the flowers do not fall apart, and the grass does not stop growing. Like Nature, we need to have faith that the sun is above the clouds, continuing to shine.
Perhaps, it is an opportunity to strengthen our faith that light never truly disappears. We hold a flame within us, kindling it with hope of resolving our pain and creating anew. We are drawn forward, believing in positive change and fulfilling results, even if they do not live up to our expectations or possibly exceed our original desires. It is by embracing the clouds, knowing light is never far away.
