That moment when you feel that living does not make sense at all, that we are in this world to suffer, to go through all kinds of adversities, to look for ways to overcome them, to move forward, to try to be positive in all kinds of situations. There comes a point where you can no longer do it, you need to suffer, you need to cry, to scream as much as you can, to let go of all kinds of feelings and resentment towards your problems, in order to move forward.
When you think that everything is taking shape, that everything is "normalizing", you think you can be happy, comes that life lesson that tells you: You are not ready yet, you still have a way to go, obstacles to go through, even stumble infinite times, until you realize that nothing lasts forever, the bad will go away at some point in your life and you will get that peace you long for, that you dream of so much, only if you work on you every day of your life, every day that passes, without giving up, without looking back and if you will do it, let it be to see the real change.
It's frustrating to feel like you're there for everyone, helping everyone else, thinking everything is fine and the opposite happens. That little problem that torments your head happens and you try to escape, escape from it, evade it, ignore it in every way possible to try to move on with everything else. Unfortunately that won't happen, the only way to overcome what is happening is to face it, look for alternatives, stop living in a fantasy world that doesn't exist, won't exist either. I have had to give myself my own dose of reality to understand the why of many things, I don't want to be cruel, just that sometimes, I feel it is necessary to put my feet on the ground and work on it.
I do not want to repeat patterns from before, feeling stagnant, suffocated, being afraid to achieve everything I set out to do. Today I felt like nothing, I did not want to get up to go to the gym, I just wanted to be in my room, although that sometimes is valid I felt I was losing the process that has cost me so much to achieve, if I missed today, I was going backwards and believe me, a person like me has a hard time moving forward, especially if you are going through many storms in your life. It was worth it to get up because by exercising I made the decision to drain and release all toxicity, to free myself a little, I definitely did not leave as I had entered, I felt the energy, the vibe of wanting to give it all. I am afraid that this will not last forever, I tend to devalue my effort, it is something I am still learning to manage, the important thing is that I am doing it.
What if by spending most of my time stagnant I don't accomplish anything? If I focus so much on the bad that I forget the good that I have been living, or have lived, because I have, not everything is a black cloud, stepping on the bottom helped me to unite more with my parents, share with them, I like to live together, it feels a different environment, because it is, everything took a completely unexpected turn. It's nice to see them worried about me, helping me to feel better, I don't know, it's strange, but I'm not complaining at all.
I learned that there will be people who come into our lives to teach us something, either to value ourselves or to feel better. A month ago I experienced something unpleasant in love, I do not like to talk much about what happened, not even mention it, even so I must be grateful that it happened, it made me realize that I am a woman with incredible potential, willing to fulfill all my dreams no matter what they cost. I am a visionary person, capricious at times (or most of the time) and seeing myself in success has been motivation to keep working on it, life is blood, sweat and fire.
I am still learning that my happiness comes first, not to be that unconditional friend if to do so I have to minimize myself, to be patient in circumstances that will come into my life, to work on my body, to listen to it, to attend to my needs, not to ignore them, not to leave them for later. There are things that we must solve immediately, because by then it will be too late, or the problem may become much bigger. I am learning to love myself, to accept myself as I am, improving my mental health every day, I am not well, I cannot lie to myself, much less to you who read me, but if I can be grateful and say that I am not the same person I was months ago, I am not stagnant, I am on my way, swinging, going at my own pace, understanding it and that, for a person who has suffered as much as I am, makes you feel great.
A veces hay que tocar fondo para poder impulsarnos otra vez, es muchísimo mejor que dejarse arrastrar por nuestros problemas.
Hola @syberia. Es cierto, tocar fondo me hizo poder darme cuenta que merezco muchísimo más, no merezco ahogarme en un vaso de agua, estoy agradecida, estoy saliendo adelante y es ¡Increíble!
Un abrazo.
