Pivoting toward the light

When things are turning dark, try pivoting toward the light. Nothing grandiose-no great secrets revealed Just a simple pivot of the wayward mind until the shine comes back into view. Like the bow of an oft battered rose weaving its way through icy storms... try and follow the sextant of the soul. Darkness is necessary to expose the blight but darkness is also toxic to the virgin light. pivot away from this molten blackness. Pivot sharply -gently praying for direction. This light will never slither away only devils procure that illusion. This purist light is an uncharted island anchored to the strength of your faith. I pray to someday make landfall on the cay of light. An island that the wizened call...heaven.
