The article below can be for readers of this blog but more so for their friends or family members that are struggling. There is already magic in this article because the two people I shared it with both told me it helped them in unimaginable ways that indeed I can imagine. If it helped them, maybe it can help you or someone you know.
We can get into unfavourable states of mind (thinking) and body (feeling) where things seem as though there is no hope and life seems pointless and unimportant; those are just the clouds.
When it feels as if things will never get better, those are just the clouds.
It may get worse than it is right now, it likely will, but those are just the clouds.
We only feel that way because we are stuck in a particular mental state or mind pattern (most likely an unconscious repetitive loop. )
Our thoughts are telling us lies and we believe them without questioning them. Those are just the clouds.
When we begin to question our thoughts we will see that most are not even true and if we dig deep enough, underneath every thought there is an inherited belief or program directing all of our patterns. Those are also just the clouds.
You, however, are the sunshine behind the clouds, and that means you are always bright and always there even though there are times when it feels dark and cloudy.
All you need to do is wait out the storm, and things will be better. You know this already because youβve seen it in your past.
Every time there is a storm, every single time, the sun always comes out after; sometimes, it is even accompanied by a beautiful rainbow.
So why do the clouds feel so heavy and dark? Because those thoughts are clouding the sunshine, but if you get back up or hang on and don’t let go because you know that YOU are the sun and not the clouds, the clouds will eventually disappear.
It will always get better and one day you will realize that the things you think are bad and horrible in the moment, are the things you need to turn into the person the universe intended for you to be.
When we are stuck in these thought patterns it is easy not to fight back, but you must fight back because your mind is tricking you. Those thoughts are just the clouds drifting by.
Things always get better because YOU are the Sun and those, well , those are just the clouds.
You are the sunshine behind the clouds. I love those words. Thank you for this beautiful and powerful post.

Somehow it reminds me of the verse from Psalms, “Weeping may last for a night, but joy comes in the morning.” The sun will always rise after dark times! I really like your visual. We can always remember that the bright sun is there waiting for us even when we can’t see it! I am also thinking of the verse, “The Sun of Righteousness will rise with healing in His wings.” π

“There are times when we can get into unfavourable states of mind (thinking) and body (feeling) where things seem as though there is no hope and life seems pointless and unimportant, those are just the clouds.” As a Bipolar inhabited Christian this is an all to common state of mind. Until I surmount my depression nothing positive reaches me
