“Someone I loved once gave me a box full of darkness. It took me years to understand that this too, was a gift.” Mary Oliver




What do you do when you realize that your heading or title has nothing to do with what you're writing about? What do you do when you feel like your head is empty but in a way filled with ideas that you can't seem to access? What you do is choose something within the heading and simply write away. It won't matter whether you're dragging because sometimes, dragging is the best kind of writing...

So what was the box of darkness that you received? How did it make you feel? Did it affect you in any way? How did you conquer the darkness or does it still have a hold of you? 

When is it that you come to terms that you can be unstoppable? That everything people have told you has either been to break or make you. When is it that you come to face the fact that you're better off without some people?

They make have given you the box and for a while, you felt trapped, but you soon figured that it wasn't just a curse but also a gift; you understood more and become stronger along the way.

What do you do when you finally gain the freedom that you've been aching for? Where do you go and who do you go with?
