Don’t despair. Don’t lose hope – everything that’s meant to happen will happen. Everything that’s destined to be yours will eventually find its way to you.
I know that you sometimes feel like your entire life is falling apart. You feel like you’re trapped in darkness. You feel too weak and too powerless to prevent your world from collapsing.
But, darling, stop for a second.
Breathe.
Focus your attention on other things.
Because problems come and go … as tides. What always remains is your strength. Your courage. Your resilience.
Because these are qualities that no one and nothing can take away from you.
Maybe you’re too afraid to open your eyes and see the love and warmth you’re surrounded with. Maybe you’re too afraid to face boldly what life has in store for you. Maybe you’re too afraid to look deep inside yourself.
But, darling, you shouldn’t be. Because trust me – if you look deep inside yourself, you will find something wonderful. Something unique.
You’ll see your genuineness. Your strength. All of your qualities. Your uniqueness.
If you look deep inside yourself, you’ll see that you’re not weak. That you’re not powerless.
Because you’re strong. You’re smart. You’re more than good enough. And you have what it takes to overcome whatever problem and pain life may throw your way.
So, darling, don’t lose hope. Don’t despair. Remember that what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. So, if you’re going through tough times now, remember that this is just a phase. A temporary phase. A phase that won’t last forever.
And make sure you never settle for less than you deserve. Never settle for people who take you for granted. People who are not aware of your worth. People who only have time for you when they need you, but when it’s you that needs help or support, they’re nowhere to be found.
Never settle for people who are not loyal to you. People who don’t deserve your trust. People you can’t rely on.
Never settle for people who ooze negativity. People who make you doubt yourself. People who prevent you from being happy. People who are unworthy of your love.
And always remember that everything that’s meant to happen will happen. You will sooner or later become the person you’ve always wanted to be. And until that happens, know who you are. Never let life’s difficulties make you think you’re weak, powerless, useless, or unimportant.
Walk boldly through every obstacle life might send your way and embrace everything the present has in store for you. Because what’s meant to be will be. You can’t change what’s written in the stars.
So, if something is meant to break your heart, let it do so. Let the pain flow freely through you and learn your lessons.
If something is meant to hurt you, let it do so and allow the pain to make you stronger and wiser.
But, never ever give up. Always keep pushing forward, even when life knocks you down. Because tomorrow is a new day. And every new day brings new hope and an opportunity to change things for the better.
