Bright Lights And Dark Shadows

By Evan Sanders


You can't always be positive.

In reality if you were positive all of the time, how could people really believe in the truth of your character? They couldn't.

In order to be positive you really have to understand what it's like to go through negative times. When we go through those negatives, it gives us the ability to see how much the positives really matter in our lives. To give this even more perspective, Carl Jung the famous psychologist once wrote, "The brighter the light the darker the shadow." That in itself pretty much sums all of this up.

Throughout my life and on the journey of all of this personal discovery, I have discovered what it truly means to be out in this world to help other people create lives that they can be passionate about and proud of.

For years I've been taking my personal experiences of suffering through the worst of situations and transforming those events into stories that could somehow resonate with others. Those stories are not always coming from a positive place, but they can always end in sort form of light.

Everyone has gone through dark moments. Everyone has suffered through the worst of the worst. We are all challenged throughout our lives and some moments are darker than others. But we all can rise. We call can get back up and continue loving despite being through unloving situations. We can all continue to put our hearts on the line even if we have had ours broken to pieces.

We can all find some light in the darkness. We can all try to bring a positive outlook into our lives even though we are going through very dark times. Some days are going to be a lot harder than others and you are going to feel like you can hardly breathe. Keep going. Keep trying.

When you can take a negative situation in your life and shed light on it you truly can create something that can inspire the masses. Everyone really is struggling when it comes down to it. Everyone is suffering. But if you can try your best to see the best in everything you will be more than ok.

Struggle hard. Love hard.
