What's True in the Dark?

3 Truths for When You're Drifting and Alone

You're here. On this planet. In this body. And it's hard. Really, really hard. Some days it feels like you're drifting away from everything solid, like no one sees you, like no one would notice if you just... disappeared. The loneliness is crushing. The pain doesn't stop. And you're forgetting why you're here, forgetting that it wasn't always this dark, forgetting that you matter. This is for those moments. When you're losing your grip. When you can't remember what's true. When you need someone to remind you of what you've forgotten.

Here are 3 Soul Sparks help you remember when you're drifting, alone, and can't see the light.

SOUL SPARK #1

How do I know I'm strong enough to survive this?

You have survived everything that has ever tried to break you. Every single thing. The losses. The betrayals. The nights that felt endless. The moments you were sure you couldn't take another breath - and then you did. You're still here. Not because it was easy, but because something in you is stronger than everything that's tried to destroy you. That strength doesn't always feel like strength. Sometimes it feels like barely holding on. Sometimes it's just one more breath, one more minute, one more day. But you're here. Reading these words. Still breathing. That's not nothing - that's everything. You have a 100% survival rate so far. And whatever this is, whatever you're facing right now - you will survive this too. Not because you're supposed to be strong, but because you already are. Even when you forget.

SOUL SPARK #2

What if no one cares and I'm completely alone?

The loneliness is lying to you. It tells you no one cares. That you're invisible. That if you disappeared, the world would keep spinning without noticing. But the loneliness is a liar. It's a frequency you're stuck in right now, not the truth of your existence. You matter to people you don't even realize you matter to. You've touched lives you've forgotten you touched. And even in this moment - when you feel utterly alone - there are people who would want to know you're hurting. People who would show up if you let them. The isolation feels permanent but it's not. It's a weather pattern, not the climate. And weather changes. The loneliness wants you to stay silent - that's how it survives. Break the silence and you break its grip. You're not as alone as you feel.

SOUL SPARK #3

Will this feeling ever change or end?

This will change. It always does. Not because of toxic positivity or spiritual bypassing - but because that's how reality works. Nothing stays the same. Including this. Including the pain. Including the darkness. Including the feeling that it will never end. It will end. It will shift. Something will change - inside you, outside you, around you. The dawn comes even after the longest night. You've seen it before. You've lived through "I can't survive this" and then survived it and then looked back and realized it passed. This will pass too. Not on your timeline, maybe. Not as fast as you want. But it will change. Hold on until it does. Not forever - just for now. Just for today. Just for this breath and then the next one. That's all you have to do. Keep breathing until the change comes. And it will come. It always does.

You're here. You're still breathing. You haven't drifted away yet - and you won't. Not today. The pain is real but it's not the whole story. The loneliness is loud but it's lying. And this moment - as dark as it is - will pass. You just have to stay long enough to see what comes next.

If you need support right now, reach out to someone - a friend, a healer, a crisis line. You don't have to hold this alone.
