When you face the hardest task but know inside that you are equal to it, you face it with soul power and truth. AND when you can equal yourself to everything that you think is lesser than you, you will find the source of the pain and can find healing. To be equal to something or someone opens dialogue and brings things to light. Darkness does not fight the light, it is not an equal and opposing force. Ignorance and fear may keep you in the dark but knowledge and truth will light up even the darkest dungeon.
Darkness is a lack of wholeness.
Your soul is the true you. It is whole, and seeks to be whole in a physical body. It is equal to everything, it needs nothing. It wants to express and feel this while in the physical world. Your soul is the silence that brings light to the inner dungeons.
