How do we approach periods of uncertainty, isolation, and a pervasive sense of disorientation? At some point, many of us will encounter a "dark night of the soul," a season in which we feel isolated and grapple with what we thought we knew. It can be challenging, lonely, and confusing. However, it can also change us. Might the dark night of the soul present an opportunity to reexamine our accumulated experiences and come to terms with the certainties we once held? During this process, could we begin to find new beauty in fleeting moments or uncover a new purpose behind it all? Like a photographer who snaps a photo on a mountainside but then labors in the seclusion of a darkroom to create something beautiful, tangible, and worth sharing, some of the best work of living unfolds during the darkest seasons.
