I want to talk to you... you who are feeling constant agitation, your mind cloudy, and you who feel that you’re drowning in the deepest and darkest ocean, finding it difficult to lift your head above the enormous waves. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I want to talk to you... you who fights their reality. Who cannot accept their emotions, and their pain. You, who can comfort another person with a genuine empathetic heart, and who can accept other people’s challenges but cannot give an inch of compassion to themselves. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I want to talk to you... you who thinks “this is not me. I’m better/stronger/more capable than this.” You who are so preoccupied with perfection of self, trying so hard to be in control, and who closely monitors their feelings with frustration and fear. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I want to talk to you... you who puts a smile on their face although they feel a tornado inside. You who feels like a fraud when someone pays them a compliment because “if only they knew how flawed I really am...” right? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I want to talk to you...you who compares themselves to everyone else through a distorted idealistic lens ... “they know better/do better/are better than me.” ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I want to talk to you...you who are trying, So... Damn...Hard. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I know how you feel. I have felt it all. We’re all broken and we’re all humans. We all struggle in some way. If only you knew how many people do and how many people feel as you do. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Look at this as an opportunity to learn about yourself. To learn patience, gentleness and to abandon yourself to God. He does not permit unnecessary suffering, and his power manifests itself in our weakness. We need challenges because adversity breeds strength and strength breeds character. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Don’t listen to the lies, turn your back on your thoughts. Not once or twice, but every day. Talk to someone. Keep going and never give up. You are courageous because you’ve come this far. And carrying this takes enormous strength. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Above all... pray. That you may see yourself how God sees you. His beloved. As a Father sees his little child for whom his heart bleeds and for whom he wishes to carry to safety, if only they let Him talk to them🌺
