Transformational changes often occur when we find ourselves in the midst of darkness.
Personally, I believe that the changes in my life had to happen when I was most vulnerable, consumed by fear of the unknown. It was during these dark moments that I found it easiest to surrender to the changes taking place within me.
Seeds of transformation were being planted deep within me, but I couldn't recognise them, let alone uproot them. The writing was on the wall, yet I was unable to erase it. The path to change was being laid out for me, and I couldn't ignore it.
It was in this state of vulnerability that I was unable to sabotage myself. The darkness allowed me to face my fears and embrace the changes happening within me. Indeed, it all had to happen in the dark.
