Those days!

Those days!

We all know ‘those days.’ We all have them. We are familiar with them. We bump into them. Those tough rough days. Those days when everything comes crashing down on you. Those days when you feel like the universe is conspiring against you, when your shadow overcasts you, when the sun is less bright, when the storm is too harsh too rough. When those days come, I want you to know, it’s going to be alright. I need you to believe that all things will work out for your good.

You are in the verge of giving up. Nothing is working out. Too much to think about. You want to give up. You feel like you are drowning. The water is pulling you down. The darkness is swallowing you up. You are slowly losing yourself to the storm. Letting yourself go…into darkness…

Feels like your soul is separating from your body; slow death. You feel yourself detach from yourself. You want to cry. You want to scream. Yet you want to stop all the noise in your head.  You crave for the silence. You need the peace and quiet. You yearn for solace. But then you have to get up to get to that. You have to save yourself from drowning. Get up and dust yourself. You have to try and see the positive side of it all. It’s always there. Slow down and look! There’s always something positive for you. Find it now. In the midst of the darkness light up your own fire. Keep moving, holding the fire on one hand and move further in the dark, you will see a light at the end of the tunnel.

It’s too much for you today but tomorrow is a new day. Things will work out. Your wishes may have crashed but there’s always something else in the store for you. Just hold on a little longer. Keep moving. The fir us still in your hand. Have faith that God won’t and will never leave you. Keep moving towards the light at the end of the tunnel.

When those days come, remember that things will get better. You will get better. One day you will remember those dark and uncertain days and you will smile and thank God for the lessons. When those days come, don’t fall apart, don’t give up, find little pockets of hope wherever you can and hold onto them with all your might.

Remember that you are water.

Cry. Cleanse. Flow.

Remember that you are fire.

Burn. Tame. Ignite.

Remember that you are air.

Be still. Focus. Decide.

Remember that you are earth.

Ground. Build. Give~ Goodquote.
