Hello,
Recently I’ve been forced into learning a few lessons due to familial issues that I won’t delve into too much, but they feel important, and something that I’ll need to know as my future arrives. Over the next few weeks I’ll be recounting them and learning as I go; as you learn something new everyday.
number one – calm down
My mind moves at 300 miles per minute, and sometimes we should force ourselves to slow down. Within my grief over the situation, I managed to forget to cry. I spent hours working at essays or maths problems; losing sight of the fact that it is okay to cry.
Sadness is a part of life, and when you accept it you enable yourself to forgive the world and stop being angry – and to begin to live again, with pockets of sadness to grieve in, and the rest of the time for whatever the brain chooses to occupy itself with. The mind never truly becomes distracted, just more focused. But sometimes more focused is all we need.
Thank You.
