I bet you have the same experience as mine. Those times that we think that we just need to survive today. This open letter is for you.
Hey you... I know you're tired and anxious. It does not mean that you're weak or fragile, it just simply means that you're human. Capable of feeling and experiencing the rollercoasters of our emotions. I know you misses the "old" you, the one who is so positive and outgoing. Your old self who is so care-free and so warm. And it's completely fine to long for those moments.
I am writing to tell you, that what you're feeling right now is valid and it matters. It is okay to feel blue and have gray days. It is okay to feel that way, you know what... These are the moments, that you slow down, you try look deeper within and you ask again "why?".
Slow moments in our lives are necessary to help us draw back from the noises and from the fast-changing world. These are the times that allows us to think and check on ourselves. It does not mean that you will be left behind or that you are not strong enough. Slowing is beautiful because it reminds you of all the little details that makes you a unique. It allows you to appreciate these serenity of life and how wholesome the feeling of such.
From all the failures, mishaps and disappointments that we all feel. May we be reminded that sometimes, being positive is not applicable, but Acceptance to whatever transpires in life would build us better as a person. Accepting that there are good days and not-so-good ones, and realizing that you can always try again, that is what truly matters.
Yes you said right, ups and downs come in life, we should always stay positive.
