The Darkness

There is a "Darkness" that intrudes into our souls
.
It takes on many forms and torments us until we can overcome it.

Some call this "Darkness" Satan, or other symbols of "Ultimate Evil."

Some call it The "ID" or "Super Ego".

Some totally ignore the religious aspect and focus upon the "Facts."

By whatever method used, There is hope in battling the "Darkness."

Even when it changes, We can "Over Come."

For when it changes, we have achieved a "Victory."

---

I have battled the darkness in my life. For me, it began when I was raped as a teen. I took on the form of guilt and shame over the rape.
Only the love and acceptance of friends in the church helped me to battle it.
Then, going to the doctor for gastric bypass, I was put on a special regimen of pills to help me lose weight.
The pills did work. I began to feel better, able to take on the world.
Then I stopped taking the pills. Now I know I need them to be a complete person.
Remember, WE WILL OVERCOME.
