I just realized the cycle I have been through/am going through. I was embracing my light, how bright it can shine for a lot of this year... Last year too. Then through a series of events everything switched. Now I'm embracing my darkness. It's actually beautiful thinking about it now. I either dim my shine or make light of my darkness to make others comfortable... I squirm with them out of empathy. I hate the feeling. Universe is like what about empathy for yourself though and even though this is a difficult time... I'm not mad at it when I see it from this perspective.
