My Dear Friend,
You’re in a tough place now, I know. You see no purpose or joy in life right now, I understand. There is a dark cloud following you everywhere and you see nothing but pain and… nothing, you’re right. You wish everything should stop with all costs, and no wonder. Everything seems pointless and you have a strong belief your future will be the same. You question everything, even the reason for your existence. Who would want to live such a miserable life?
In these tough times, I ask you to think about me. Think about the fact it wasn’t always like this. Think that someone somewhere loves you and they think about you every single day. Think about the fact that you’ve been through similar moments in the past and you managed to get through somehow. You’re stronger than you think you are! That’s a fact! Otherwise you wouldn’t be here right now. You and your life matter, even though it doesn’t seem to be that way. You changed other people’s lives for better along the way even though you don’t know that and you’ll keep doing it as long as you live. You are a piece of the puzzle and the puzzle wouldn’t be complete without you. The sun is still there even though the clouds cover it. Your happiness it there even though depression took over right now. This too shall pass.
Remember your smile, remember the moments you were thrilled, remember when your life felt complete, remember when you were happy. Just like weather, life has seasons, otherwise we wouldn’t know multiple states exist. You wouldn’t know happiness without some sadness and you wouldn’t know sadness without some happiness. You wouldn’t know evolution without some failure. You wouldn’t know better without going through worse. You wouldn’t know life without seeing death.
My dear friend, I’m asking you to be patient. Things will get better, you’ll see. All you need to do is to not make them worse. You feel pain and you want the lack of it. The only way to get there is thorough patience and faith. As it were before, things will get better, you’ll see. It always does. Sometimes it takes days, sometimes it takes months, sometimes it takes years. The longer the wait, the happier the moments. Everything has a price and the higher the price you need to pay, the bigger the reward.
When it’s tough, think about this: considering the pain you endure right now, imagine how awesome the reward will be! Nothing is eternal and your pain is no exception!
Signed,
Your Happy Moments
