It gets a little lighter…a little brighter…slowly life comes back into focus…maybe just for a day but it is real. Despair, it will visit again I know but next time…next time, I will remember. I will remember the bright day, the day where a sense of well being was mine. I’ll remind myself of the night I put my head on the pillow and realized I had not been overcome that day with tears…”I didn’t cry today” I whisper to myself with a sense of satisfaction and also a little fear. Am I just getting hardened or am I really sensing His grace and intervention? “This is a long haul” I remind myself and smile at my naivety of years gone by.
In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer. - A. Camus
