“Though commonly understood as a place to be feared and avoided, the Dark Wood is the surest place to meet God. It is a place where you may feel uncertain, empty, lost, tempted and alone. Yet, these feelings – these gifts of the Dark Wood – can be your greatest assets on your journey because they invite you to probe, question and discover. According to the ancients, you don’t need to be ‘above average’. All you really need to be is struggling.’
