I am not sure what I hope to gain by writing this blog post, but I do know that that little voice inside of me has been telling me to write. So, here I am. Writing. So much has been going on these past few weeks. I feel like life consists of waiting. Waiting for answers. Waiting for something good to happen. Waiting for the storm to pass. We are all just waiting and I can't seem to grasp why the waiting needs to happen.
When we are little we are taught that good always conquers evil and that the hero will always defeat the bad guys in the end. We are also taught that love will just happen to you, and that your Prince Charming or Princess are just going to be right there in the right moment. Well, I have grown up believing all of this to be true. Lately, I am starting to doubt. Why do bad things, no not bad things, but horrific things have to happen to us? I know that it makes us stronger in the end, but why do we have to go through this pain and suffering? It seems unfair. It really does.
So we wait. There is nothing we can do about it. Just waiting for the storm to pass like I said. "This too shall pass" keeps repeating in my head. "All will be well." " Everything will be fine." "Trust" "It's all part of a bigger plan." I say these phrases to myself over and over again and pray that I will start to find some sort of understanding. Why did all of this have to happen? Why does one person's mistakes effect so many? It is just mind blowing how connected we all are as human beings. Think about it, because of one person's poor decisions so many have suffered. It just boggles my mind.
I find myself talking to the universe a lot. I also find that in hard times like this, you need to turn to your blessings. Look for the postives and try to embrace the mess that you are in. It will all be clear eventually.
I am still going to believe in those fairytales I read as a little girl. I am still going to believe in the magic of good conquering evil and truth winning in the end. I believe in the hero defeating the bad guys. I believe that prince's find their princesses. I will keep on believing. I believe in my family. I will continue to believe in what has been built and I will always believe in the truth.
Just keep on believing, you almost have no other choice because once you lose faith and hope, you don't have much to work towards.
Let's keep moving. Moving forward. Let's keep learning and growing and working towards a better tomorrow.
