Low points in lives are almost guaranteed. Low points can last from minutes, to days, to months, to years. Everyone in this world is almost promised a low point. Many people can become overwhelmed and unsure of what lies ahead. Most people long for words and advice that they might not hear. I want to be here and offer some words of reassurance that everyone can use. So take this article how you'd like and remember, it will always be here for reference in case you need to hear the words you want to hear and might not have the people to tell you those things.
As vague and cliché as this certain statement is, it is one that desperately needs to be said. It is going to be okay. I have noticed that many people do not believe everything could be okay after an event that is incredibly traumatic takes place. Although it may not seem that things will be okay, I promise you that they will turn into something great and positive, if you guide them in that direction. Any situation can become something great if you change it into something great. That brings me to my next point. You are strong enough to learn and change situations to be positive.
Strength is something everyone has and may not be able to see or fully comprehend. Maintaining the ability to pursue on and manipulate the experiences and situations you have witnessed takes immense willpower and resilience. That is reassurance itself. You are strong and you are valid.
How do you expect to feel better if you don't allow yourself to feel at all? It is okay to cry and to hurt and to not do either of those. Emotions are what make us human and who we are. Everyone takes on coping in different ways. You can cry, you can laugh, you can stay silent, these are all valid and worthy coping methods that you have all of the rights to take part in. Emotionally indulge yourself in food if that's what you need to do to feel better. You are worthy of feeling like this. This is a step to getting better and feeling better.
You are not alone. People in this world are always feeling discouraged and doubtful. This is not uncommon and everyone deserves reassurance that they are okay. Although your situation is unique and different from anyone else's, many people are in similar situations. You may feel stuck between a rock and a hard place but just keep pushing. You are doing your best and you are not only surviving. You are living.
You are loved. Many people seem to forget that they are loved by so many others. I think it is so crucial to remind people that you care, even if you just let them know "hey, was thinking of you!" The littlest things and efforts can make such a huge impact and difference to someone. So here is your own personal reminder, you are loved. You are thought about. People care.
I am here for you. I am always willing to listen to people and their stories. Whether it be just a random conversation or one that is deep and causes you stress. You can find me, I will be here. I will not interrupt. I will not tell you that it doesn't matter. I will not ignore you. I will listen. I will be the one to reassure you of the things you need to hear. That is my promise to you.
