Hello?

“So don't be frightened, dear friend, if a sadness confronts you larger than any you have ever known, casting its shadow over all you do. You must think that something is happening within you, and remember that life has not forgotten you; it holds you in its hand and will not let you fall. Why would you want to exclude from your life any uneasiness, any pain, any depression, since you don't know what work they are accomplishing within you?”

You will be okay. And if you’re not okay right now, that just means you are growing, and it will be okay soon. You are not alone, don’t listen to your head. Sometimes it feels like it, and when that feeling shows up, reach out to someone. Communicating with another person can give you a perspective other than your own and connection is relieving and healing. You are a child of the universe, precious in all you are, give yourself half a break. Humans were meant to be flawed, it’s natural and that’s what will forge your character as you walk through the fire. Accept yourself. Feel lonely, let it pass though instead of consuming you. Hugs.
