The assumption is to work towards connection. But this does not understand the nature of connection. We ARE connected. We have never not been connected.

So that you stand face to face with the uncertainty of darkness. For it’s in this darkness that you’ll remember that you are the light. And from there you will run freely. With no need to hide.
