Summary

This quote implies that our difficulties and struggles may seem overwhelming and insurmountable at first, but when seen from a different perspective or with the help of others, they may not be as deep and overwhelming as we initially believed. The concept of darkness being relative suggests that our perception of challenges can vary depending on our mindset, experiences, and support systems. It reminds us to seek alternative viewpoints and support in order to gain a clearer understanding and potentially diminish the power of our perceived obstacles.

I have heard of a man lost in the woods and dying of famine and exhaustion at the foot of a tree, whose loneliness was relieved by the grotesque visions with which, owing to bodily weakness, his diseased imagination surrounded him, and which he believed to be real.
