You might think that life has become uneventful because nothing seems to be shaking your bubble. Everything is happening as you expect it to be --- you wake up to a brand new day, show up to work, end the day with little tasks accomplished, catch up on Netflix, and doze off. That's how life has been for years. Constant. Steady. Until something jolts you from your uneventful life.
*****
Nothing is certain. Everything passes. The pain one feels at every goodbye is not permanent. The joy brought by an experience slowly diminishes with the passing of time. The fear of not taking that leap of faith dwindles. That nagging sense of loneliness/emptiness for a void that will never be filled may be creeping its way out of your life sooner than later.
When you look back at these days years from now, you will then remember that you are a survivor.
*****
Sometimes a good cry is all you need. Let it out. Cry a river, if you must. Let all your deepest hurts flow with the tears. Honor every tear until there are no more tears to shed.
