Sometimes I feel like I am not the protagonist of my own film. Not even the crippling depression can latch onto the title of being the antagonist. The exposition, rising action, climax, falling action, and conclusion are plot elements of its own development that I did not even expect.
Take 1.
Never anticipated the unknown. Last words. This is a speech to condone the beast in my hollow and aching bones. Never anticipated the unknown.
Take 2.
Maybe the unknown is flourishing growth in the moist soil cultivated by the streams of clarity.
Never anticipated the unknown given our path to our destiny is known.

Starring role.
Snapped back to the present, I realize that everything that has occurred in my life has a purpose and reflection is a very essential element in one's process of unfolding the chapters of our lives and others'. Events that occur in our lives may destroy us piece by piece and feel like theres no hope. But these moments bolster us human beings to adapt to painful predicaments you never anticipated and have growth and mindfulness occur within our minds and hearts.
I came to the conclusion that practicing mindfulness and reflection really helps us human beings to manage our emotions, to decrease, stress, depression, anxiety, and etc. By managing our emotions in a positive manner, it bolsters us to have full attention, observe, and reflect our thoughts and emotions. In addition, mindfulness improves our ability to observe what we may visualize, hear, feel, think, and notice within ourselves, others, and our environment in the present. However, from observing things internally and externally, it really helps us with decision making and becoming fully engaged in life. From both pieces of substantiations, I learned that mindfulness not only ameliorates our cognitive thinking, but it helps us to not latch onto the things we cannot change in the past, worry about the future, and strengthen our mental health as well.
Honestly, without this piece of reflection, I feel be a human being who would be crumbling while living. I would be completely dilapidated and still feel insignificant about my existence.
Do I have days where I feel like I am falling apart and blind to see my reflection?
Yes. Most days than others.
But you and myself have to remember that we have the starring role of our films and ways of surviving our own wars. We possess the control of weathering ourselves with clarity and rejuvenation through malice, positivity, love, and etc.
When you feel like your life isn't your own, remember that you have the control of your own subtitles and noise of your own film. You are the starring role.
