Most of us are unaware that we are already drowning in our problems. Subconsciously, we try to mask it with a facade or false strength. Then we wonder, how can we be free and not listen to the negative voices we hear inside and from people who do not see our value?
We have questions, a lot of questions that are unanswered in our heads. Questions like, am I enough? What’s my purpose in life? Am I making the right choices? Can I disappear and start a fresh life somewhere no one knows me? How would it feel like if things were different? Would they give an effort to get to know me better? If your answer is yes, then I guess this message is for you.
It is hard to deal and be friends with someone who already judged you based on what they hear and see you externally, but they didn’t know the battle that you have to deal with inside. Those daily battles that defeated you so multiple times but every single day you choose to get up and fight again.
Let it go. Let go of the painful words they say about you. Let go of the poor choices you made. Let go of the time where you make mistakes. Let go of those moments that you wish had never happened. When you let go, the past no longer has the power to hold you prisoner.
Most of us have this false assumption that everyone must act accordingly to what we expect them to be. We forgot to understand that each of us are human too, we make mistakes, we make poor decisions and we don’t figure out everything that’s happening in our life. Most people expect you to behave in the way that they want you to be, but not to what and who you really are.
I know that you are tired of all the speculations, I know that you are hiding your scars, I know that you are holding your tears. At some point, life is really unfair but it doesn’t mean that it’s over. I am just trying to tell you that someone out there knows you well, who accepted your darkest version and still loved you. You can project your life all the way up. If you have dreams and visions, God or the universe will make it for you.
Thus, treat yourself like someone you love. I repeat, treat yourself like someone you love. If you can’t love yourself, how could you ever truly love someone else? You are who you are looking for. Look in the mirror. The man that looks back at you is the only one who can make you happy. You are enough. You already are.
So starting today take a good look in the mirror and say “I am who I have been looking for”. Believe in you. You have a purpose. Everyday we are a work in progress. Forgive your parents, forgive anyone in your life that has hurt you in any way. Forgive yourself.
You are not perfect. I am not perfect. We are not perfect. You are hurting, you are going through something and that is enough reason for you to cry. After letting it all out, take a deep breath and gather your strength. Think of the times you feel helpless, think of the times you were scrutinized, when you were judged, remember the moments that make you happy and remember the reason why you want it so hard. Sometimes, one step back is two steps forward. I know it’s hard, but if you really want to set yourself free from all that baggage then you must make a decision now. Always know that once you decide it is for a higher purpose and there’s no turning back.
There are times that we are blinded by our fear and we do the right things for the wrong reason. Be brave to accept things. Be brave to accept that things will never gonna turn out the way they are. Be brave to face your fears. Be brave to live life and get back up again. You are way stronger than someone who locks himself up at night and cries within the covers and over his pillows. Courage isn’t having the strength to go on, it is going on when you don’t have the strength.
Whatever experience you have will come to pass. Harness your will to live life that no matter what happens you know everything is gonna be alright.
