What is depression?

What if it's our brilliance, our sacred calling, meant to be lived outwardly...

What if it's that energy turned within... turned into rot?

There’s a line from the Gnostic gospels that has stayed with me:

If you bring forth what is within you, what you bring forth will save you.

If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you.

I think about this often.

What if each of us carries a Divine energy—something unique, sacred, and irreplaceable—just waiting to be made manifest in the world?

What if our purpose isn’t something we “find,” but something we uncover, draw out, and set free?

And here’s the sobering thought:

What happens when we don’t?

Sometimes I wonder if living out of alignment with our purpose—denying our own calling—is the very thing that begins to turn inward, twisting into frustration, anxiety, depression, or bitterness.

Not because life is punishing us, but because energy that was meant to flow outward starts eating away inside when it’s trapped.

What if the part of you that scares you… is actually the part of you you’re here to bring into the light?

Maybe salvation—whatever that means to you—has been inside you all along.

Waiting.
