Everything around us, even the most unexpected, has a dark side. An unexplored and hidden shaded area that we can hardly see or imagine. When we speak of darkness we do not mean only the lack of light, but also the restlessness of the spirit and that mysterious force that leads us away from the right path.
Sadness is linked to an occasion that caused it, to a fact, to a contingent event, to a person. But sometimes sadness arises for no reason, as a mysterious and indefinable feeling. And sometimes it is right where it shouldn’t be, at the height of our happiness. In this moments we all need to remember the light but also to acknowledge the dark. Read down below the best quotes about dark and the light will come.

Either way we need to remember that this is not the end and that we will have our happy moments. If you struggle and need motivation read down below the illuminating darkness quotes that will lead you to the light.
