Life is filled with pain. Either physically or mentally. Most of the times both. We all go through it. It is inevitable. How you deal with it is up to you!
I have to admit, I do not deal with it well at times. Sometimes I pity myself and give in to the pain. Then there are times I deal with it head on. I go thru phases in dealing with the pain.
Some days I do not even want to get out of bed. The motivation to take on another day just is not there. Some days I only get out of bed because my craving for nicotine is so great that I only get up just to satisfy myself.
I am just not where I want to be in life and I blame myself. But I know it will not last forever. This phase is just part of the growing process. There are no highs without the lows. The lows make us stronger while the highs enable us to enjoy the end of our suffering.
If only there was a way just to be high all the time. But then we would never know the difference between the two. We would not have any balance in our lives. The lows make us feel alone but just remember, even the most successful people have their moments where they feel pain and vulnerable. That is why we get so surprised when someone we think had it all, decides to end their life.
Just stay in the game and keep battling, even if it is not going your way. It will turn around. And then back around again!
