i'm sharing your sadness...

something i’ve read in a story book a long time ago & i really want to share it...

"...but the truth is that, in the end, it was simply time that made the difference. gradually i began to pick up the pieces of myself, and rediscover some enthusiasm for life. sometimes all you can do is allow yourself to go through the process. i learned to be gentle with myself, to accept that it would take time to absorb everything that had happened, and that grieving would be ongoing. it took about a year, maybe a little more, before i started to come out of the darkness. the depression slowly ebbed away, leaving me changed in a thousand tiny ways, and with a far deeper understanding of, and respect for, life’s essentially cyclical nature..."

it's been a challenging time for some of my friends this week... and that's the reason why i'm sharing the quote above. therefore, to all my friends who are facing a hard time now (you know who you are, though i'm not mentioning your names here), i'm praying for your happiness.

 

today's thursday... may there be more love and happiness today and the days to come.

~BE STRONG and BELIEVE that everything will be alright~

lOVe,
