Holding On to Hope Through Darkness

There is time where we feel devastated, depressed and lost in life. Our life keep changing and getting more difficult to embrace. Its hard enough to challenge life, but its more difficult to challenge ourself. We may see clearly, however we are shut down with hundreds or perhaps thousands of membrane. Its may not be a physical membrane but its a perspective membrane.

We are facing an army of darkness, like ghost that drain our hope and perception of happiness. Day after day we are losing our enthusiasm in life. Once we enjoyed something, now we dont. We are imprisoned inside ourself, down deep a hole screaming for help (crying, lashing out, laughing at anything)

We are not weak but we are living in our own parallel world. But we should never ever lose sight of hope or stop screaming for help.

No matter what happen keep going, keep reaching your hand to yourself, keep removing these membranes that clouding your sight for happiness. We are all in this together.
