There are forces stronger than viruses. There are weights more lethal than strains. There are sicknesses that remain invisible and there's no aspirin for this kind of pain. I would need something more than doctors, more than a cvs prescription. There's no synthetic concoction that could eradicate this particular condition. I tested positive.
When the world seems overwhelming, sometimes a few powerful words can make all the difference. Dwight Curwen's spoken word poem 'I Tested Positive' is one such piece. Written and performed by Curwen, this poem takes you on an emotional journey through the highs and lows of battling addiction, depression, and anxiety. But it’s not just about struggle; it’s about finding hope and embracing change in the most challenging times.
Curwen shares his personal experiences, drawing parallels between the global pandemic and his own battles with mental health. He speaks candidly about the pain of feeling invaded by something beyond control and the loneliness that often accompanies such feelings. Yet, amidst the darkness, Curwen's words shine a light on the power of personal transformation. He challenges listeners to treat their hearts with the same care they give their hands, to sanitize their words, and to wear masks over their judgments.
His message is clear: even in our darkest moments, we have the power to change and grow. 'I Tested Positive' is a call to action, urging us to pour out prayers like bleach over our lives and to spread love like a contagious disease. It’s a reminder that hope is always within reach and that we can all test positive for a better future.
This episode is perfect for anyone looking for a dose of inspiration and a reminder that change is always possible.
