Seeking Spiritual Perfection: Dark Night of the Soul

Dear Daily Inspiration reader:
I will be travelling this week, so there won't be an audio or video version of the Daily Inspiration for the rest of the week. As much as possible, I will write a Daily Inspiration for each day, but I may miss a day occasionally depending on circumstances. Wishing you a wonderful week. Marie.

Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration

The focus for today is:  I love and accept both the light and the dark expressions of my being.

The dark night of the soul is an experience that may appear to be negative and unnecessary. Yet, is it? 

As with everything in life, the experience has a purpose. Just as the night is darkest before the dawn, our life may feel empty and meaningless, or dark and depressing, just before a breakthrough. 

As we discover and experience the dark recesses of our mind, we must love and accept ourselves, both the light and the dark expressions of our being. This acceptance allows us to let go of the old false way of being, and move into a new sense of purpose. 

 

Today's Focus was excerpted from the InnerSelf.com article:

Seeking Spiritual Perfection:   
by Marie T. Russell

Read the original article here.

This is Marie T. Russell, publisher of InnerSelf, wishing you a day of accepting yourself unconditionally (today and every day)

Join me again tomorrow for the Daily Inspiration and focus of the day.

Today, we love and accept both the light and the dark expressions of our being.
