Labyrinth of our Enigma Souls
By Miguel Santiago
In our journey through the labyrinth of life, we are often visited by the shadows of sorrow and pain. The transient nature of existence, the inevitable cessation of all we hold dear, renders a melancholy hue onto the canvas of our souls. The echo of loved ones lost resonates within us, akin to a haunting melody sung by time itself. Yet, it is in the depths of this despair that our compassion is forged. Acknowledging our vulnerabilities, we recognise the silent battles fought by those around us. Sadness strips us of pretence and lays bare our shared humanity, planting seeds of empathy in the soil of suffering and prompting us to extend a comforting hand to those adrift in the storms of their despair. The profound sorrow we endure, while heartrending, shapes our capacity to love, care, and heal. Thus, it is often in our darkest hours that we truly learn the value of a shared tear and the healing comfort of a kindred spirit.
