Overcoming Grief

            No matter how many times life teaches us that everything happens for a reason, when we face the situation we question life don't we. Why? Why should this happen to me? Why today? Why here? I have faced such similar situations and when I asked the same question, the only answer I got is that, "Don't ask why ". We want a reason for everything. But what is life if there's no mystery in it. What's done is done. We gain nothing from asking why. What we can do is ask what's next. Life can be mysterious like that and the only way to live it is to embrace it.      

                                     Grief can be very scary. We feel alone and scared all the time. Overcoming it can be a challenge and the very first step to overcome it is to accept the past is done. As it is rightly said,

 

                       "Accept what is, Let go of what was and Have faith in what will be. " 

Like I've said before the secret of life is that "People change People" but it is in us to choose the right ones. Losing a loved one is pain that can't be healed so quickly but the only way to honor them is to live like they've wanted us to. Missing the ones close to you is alright. Miss them, feel their presence and know that they are watching over us. Missing them is how you know that you loved them.

                                                              Sometimes love's a scary place and it feels like standing in the dark. We explore and try to do different things, we fly through the sky trying to fix a broken heart. Just know that your never alone. It's ok to let it go just cause you're hurting doesn't mean your weak. You don't always have to be so brave. Let go and take chance there will be someone to swoop in and save the day. You don't have to shoulder all the weight ,trust in the ones around you. They will help you fight this fight. Take on the world one step at a time. I know it's scary out there but this world which showed us pain and sorrow is also the same world which showed us happiness, joy, kindness and love. Remember to enjoy and embrace the little things in life eventually there will be a time when we realize that those where actually the big things. 

                                        Everything happens for a reason. This World is such a beautiful place, filled with wonders and magic despite all the hardships in life look for the Magic in the world. It will save you. We maybe hurting, we may be week, we may be scared, we may be lost but the magic in this world is capable of saving us. Reach out and look for it. You will be surprised. Look for it, cause only when you look for it will you realize that it has been inside you and inside the ones you love and trust.

 

                                              "For what is grief if not love persevering?"
