Sometimes things don’t always work out as planned. Most times, actually. They don’t work out, and then we get upset or angry or depressed. That’s usually how it goes, but I’ve learned that life just does that to us sometimes. Life lets us down, so when it brings us up, we appreciate what we’ve missed on the way down. We appreciate the ride, we appreciate the feeling, we appreciate just being alive. Life does that; it brings us down, it disappoints us, but never forgets to bring us back up. And maybe when it takes a little longer, its because it’s waiting on us to do our part.
You can choose to blame your circumstances on fate or bad luck or bad choices. Or you can fight back. Things aren’t always going to be fair in the real world. That’s just the way it is. But for the most part, you get what you give. The rest of your life is being shaped right now. With the dreams you chase. The choices you make and the person you decide to be. The rest of your life is a long time. And the rest of your life starts right now.
People will always walk in and out of your life. Some will stay longer than others. Some for a reason, some to teach you a lesson; and the most important one, to teach you about yourself. We won’t be able to distinguish which people are here for which reasons until they make their impact. And sometimes, that impact will be love and clarity. Other times, it will be hurt and sadness. Either way, it will teach you something. And what you gain has the ability to make you that much better off. Because truthfully, we are never too old to learn how to be happy.
All I know is, no matter how much people hurt you, no matter how much you want to give up, and no matter how often the sun does not shine, you just need to keep going. Because for all the hurt that one person gives you, there are 10 others who care. For all the things that make you wannt to give up, there are so many things out there that are worth living for. And for all the days that seem cloudy and dark, just know that the sun is there, just waiting on its chance to shine.
