We are all visited by dark nights. ⁠ When they come, mindfulness practice invites us to be present to the darkness.⁠ Because in being present with what is, we can know it more completely.⁠ Not every “bad” experience contains “good.” ⁠ But some dark nights do hold stars. ⁠ And some, also, a waxing moon.⁠ When we allow ourselves to be with the dark, its many shades become visible, and whatever is luminous will reveal itself.⁠ We become witness, again, to the changing nature of everything.⁠ Remembering that, always, dawn returns. ⁠ ⁠ 🌙 In a dark night, where do you find light?
