This time in life (part two)
As I said in the first part, there are so many things that fall under this category and so here is part two of things that might be just a part of your life as well, or you can use them later, or just for fun honestly. This is the time in life where we, younglings, make a shit ton of mistakes, some fixable, some not and some we don't even know we made them. But that is what being young means. I think.
Number one:
~Life has all the highs and all the lows.
-what do I mean by this?
Of course it's better to be high, but if you don't go down from your cloud from a time to time you never find respect for yourself (and for others) when currently in the high stage. Of course, you should struggle to not be low too much or for too long, but if you're going down, recognize it early and go down with grace (if you have to go down). Keep your cool and posture! There is nothing better than "being born again" with even more than what you had when you went low.
Number two:
~It's okay to not understand people.
-what do I mean by this?
We people are very difficult creatures and every single one of us is unique with a unique set of skills and a unique character. And it's okay not to be able to understand everyone, when you don't understand many things about yourself in the first place. People aren't easy to understand. Not just women, but everyone. Some people are easier to understand and some people are just not. And that is fine. Just like you don't have to be friends with everyone, you don't have to understand everyone. At first, it might seem like a difficult concept to understand but when you get the grasp of it, you'll know, what I'm saying.
Number three:
~Often, it's not as difficult to let go as it may seem in the beginning.
-what do I mean by this?
We all have those things, places, memories, friends etc. that we think we would never be able to abandon or forget or just not have in our lives in some way. But in the end no matter what you do, all things have their end. Of course, there are things we possibly cannot let go, I'm not opposing that, however most of the time we have the choice to let go easy or make it difficult for ourselves. Many times we choose the difficult way to let go. We reminiscence, we dig deeper and deeper to our memories just to see it one last time. And that's what we tell ourselves: one last time. And every 'one last time' hurts more and more, and we put more and more salt into the wound.
What is the easy way then? I don't know. And that is the point - you have to know your own way. If you looked at me now, you wouldn't realize a good friend of mine died 10 days ago. It wasn't easy to admit to myself that I could do it and it took me 3 days of numbness and emptiness which made me very sad but I did it. I separated my brain from my heart and for those 3 days, I felt nothing. I separated myself from the fact she died, because there was absolute nothing I could've done. And the show must go on. That's how it should be. It's hurts to say it, but yes. GIVE IT TIME.
These are my 3 things for this part. I hope you can relate to at least one or if you can't maybe later on in the future you might find yourself in this situation and it might help you :)
Love,
Michaela
