Today, I'd like to dedicate this entry to you.
Lately, you haven't been feeling like yourself. You're trying, but you constantly feel like there's something that's blocking you from happiness. You don't know what it is, but you feel sorrowful every day. You're waiting for it to go away, trying your best to ignore it most days or feel it all at once. You're exhausted, so exhausted that even the healthy hours of sleep you've been getting doesn't seem like they're enough. Your soul is tired.
It's okay to take time for yourself. It's okay to feel the way you're feeling. It's okay to feel everything you need to feel until you're ready to take on the world again. It's okay if you need more than just a little bit of time. As long as I'm here, I will not let you feel alone. We're in this together.
It's important to be kind to yourself. Speak good words to yourself. Be patient with yourself, you're trying your very best to get through the day. I see you. Your struggles, your efforts and your willingness to stick through the discomfort to get by. I know how hard some days can be, but I'm so proud of you for pulling yourself together, no matter what. Every day, you show up for yourself. Even on days you felt like you couldn't, you still did. You still smile. You're doing amazing.
I know there are some days you don't understand why darkness keeps looming inside you but you must always remember, that it is during your darkest times that you get to appreciate everything good in your life. You need moments like this to remind you that there are still goodness in your life. You still have so much to look forward to, so many people who love you, and a lot to live for. You must never forget, when the going gets tough, the tough gets going. Life goes on, so keep your feet moving forward.
It's okay to not have everything figured out yet. In time, everything will fall into place the way it should be. You must keep your faith strong. In life, in God, in you. Even if your faith is shaking, even if you feel like you're hanging by a thread, hold on. You've got this.
I will never give up on you. I will always be right here to lift you up when you don't have the strength to feel okay. I will always be your biggest cheerleader, and I will never get tired of being by your side. I believe in you. I believe in the strength within you. I believe that in time, you'll find happiness again. You'll find that light in your eyes again. And when it comes, it will stay. And when it comes, you will know how to cherish it. And when it comes, you're ready to own it with humility and strength.
You may not see it now, but these are the moments you will remember the most when you get to the other side. These moments that have to exist, and you must feel it all so you'll know how to get past it. Do not be afraid to feel, do not be afraid the pain, just have faith. You're in good hands. Everything will make sense, eventually.
And I'll be here for as long as you need me.
Love, always,
Me
