When Things Happen
JAV ONE
It’s crazy how you can be completely fine one day or even have a ‘cloud 9’ type of day, literally feeling untouchable like a boss. And then the next, it feels like the world and everything around it is falling in on you. That last Jenga block snowballing everything.
Let’s reassure ourselves that there is absolutely nothing we can do to stop these waves from hitting us. Yes, you could say, “well, if I had been more proactive“, or “if I hadn’t been so stupid, I should have taken advantage when“…bla bla bla. The thing is, you can’t, and no one can plan, prepare, cover off or predict moments in our lives that seemingly hit us out of left field.
This happens to each of us. Some people show it, and some internalise it. Either way, it is a feeling and space all of us have gone through. This is a moment, not a permanent destination. That is an unspoken fact. The point is, you are not the only one this happens to, even when you think it is.
Your feelings are warranted, but don’t let them consume you, don’t shut down or disappear, but do take a moment to pause, breathe, and recompose/centre yourself. Then you can keep pushing on in (hopefully) a healthier and positive approach.
This doesn’t need to happen in a few minutes, an hour, or a day; allow yourself to go through your emotions and processes. Still, try to avoid letting this ‘process’ become a crutch or final destination.
To bring it full circle, keep going forward.
