A Drop of Hope

2 years ago, I was going through the worst time of my life and folks on Lit and your posts kept me going. I'm in a much different and better place now. I've lost touch with those friends, but I'm glad your thread is still here. Thank you so much. Sending lots of love and wishes your way, sweetie!:heart:

Nothing but love back to you. I am just grateful this thread may have helped in some small way. You’re remarkable, you’ve come through that worst time, and you’re here and stronger for it. Acknowledge this…this is YOUR power. :rose::rose::rose:

OMG Archer! Miss watching this mad series....:D
I know, right?!
 
Hey you.

There comes a time where it needs to be said…no number of inspirational quotes can help. Sometimes life is fucking hard. There’s no sugarcoating it…it can be dark, unjust, chaotic, relentlessly cruel, and any manner of things that not only blindside you, but can make you question everything….yourself, the world, perhaps even the divine universe.

And sometimes, all we can do is accept it for what it is.

There are times when absolutely nothing can help ease the pain…so don’t. Let it be, allow it take it’s course. Feel it. And despite how you may be feeling, you’re strong enough to see it through.

There are times when no amount of light can illuminate your path…so sit in the dark. Let it be, allow it to teach you something…anything. Even if it’s just how to sit patiently. But know, like all things, it will pass. And despite how you may be feeling, you’re strong enough to see it through.

There are times when there simply is no comfort…so be uncomfortable for a while. Let it be, and give yourself patience and time to adjust. Let it all pass through you, take on only what you feel you need to help you move forward. And despite how you may be feeling, you’re strong enough to see it through.

And hey…sometimes we aren’t strong enough. Or, more accurately, we KNOW that we aren’t. It’s okay to reach out. It’s okay to surrender. It’s okay to accept help offered. Hell, it’s even okay to deny it. As messed up as it is…it’s okay.

It’s okay to not be okay, too. It’s okay to hide, shut out the world, bury yourself and survive. Just don’t allow it to take you forever.

So, wherever you are right now on your journey, trust in it. Trust the journey and anyone you deem worthy enough to walk beside you for a while.
