Beyond the Surface

Author: SequoiaWhen the weight of living hangs heavy on your spine, you must remind yourself:
“Other people feel this, too.
Other people feel this, too.”
Before I proceed, I want you to repeat saying the last two sentences above in yourself while standing in front of the mirror. Look at yourself beyond the surface and search deeper with those two tantalizing yet tired pair of orbs. Tell me what you see in your reflection. Do you see the person that you wish to be or the otherwise?
Life is explicitly simple. It is just most of the time, it's our brains and perception in life that makes everything complicated and strenuous to decipher. Eventually, we will gradually think that it's getting harder and harder, added that the odds are no longer in your favor.
As the time passes by, you will begin to presume that you've been left out and trampled on the ground. Left behind and been taken for granted. Soon enough, you will surely disregard the fact the you aren't alone in that battle you are facing. That it isn't what it seems to be. You might be fighting alone in that specific area, but if you will just take some time and pay attention to your surroundings, you will notice that everyone is fighting alongside with you with plethora of things and reasons that they carry in their hearts.
I know, it wasn't easy. Nobody claim that it was. There will be moments that you'll be consume with your own emotion and get trick by the things that you see and hear, without remembering that life is more than what we see in our naked eyes. It is beyond the surface. Beyond the smiles and happy faces. Beyond the camera and dialogue written in a script. Beyond what our human mind could fathom.
Before you raise up that white flag up above the sky that is signifying your withdrawal and bitterly accepting your defeat. Why don't you grab that sword and shield once again. But this time, try to fight what is in front of you with confidence and knowledge that you aren't alone in this arena. Everyone is sacrificing and fighting till their last breath. Now, ask yourself, who am I to quit and stop fighting for what my heart truly desires?
Life, at some point will become incomprehensible, but as long as you never give up, you will surely see the silver lining behind the cloudy and gloomy clouds. There is glimpse of hope in everything. Widen your perspective and start looking at the bigger picture. Focus your attention on the things that you want to happen. Attract and believe that you will eventually get the victory that you are always looking for.
Not because of any other reasons, but because God permits since He sees that you deserve it as well.
Today you might be struggling, tomorrow you will be the best version of yourself that you've ever encountered.
