It is okay…

We all have pursuits in life- love, happiness, sustenance, career- most times we pursue more than one at the same time. However, in the process, we may be stopped or disrupted by obstacles. Some of these hitches can take a big toll on our feelings. In order to fix the problem, we fake smiles and happiness, when deep down we feel the opposite. So this piece is dedicated to you and me…

To not be okay

To be unhappy, to cry, be you male or female

It is completely fine to be angry

Or even be tired

And jealous sometimes, yes it is human nature to be

Life is too short

Be all of the above at one time or the other along the journey


But…
Do not lose yourself in the process

Do not let certain situations change who you are

Stop for a minute!!

Remind yourself why you are on the path that you are

Ask yourself why you started on it in the first place

Get some rest

When you feel strong enough

Stand up, dust off the troubles

Keep moving

Most importantly, do not give up

Always remember…
Most conditions are not permanent

Even the night gives way to the day, the time factor has a way of dealing with everything

Hang in there

Keep pushing

Again, and most importantly, do not give up

Don’t forget…
Your struggles are what make life interesting

Use these changes to your advantage

They should be your forces for strength

Without them, you would be moving without direction

Struggles are motivations in disguise



Stay Beautiful.
