Dear you,
I wouldn’t say as the saying goes these days, that you’re loved /it’s okay to be not okay, but I will say, that no matter what it is or how long it has been (or going to be), this too shall pass.
Sometimes it’s the outside that sins us and we drown, sometimes it’s our own efforts. The more you strive the more you sink. So instead of trying that as in “trying to jump out of depression” or “trying to be happy”, or as they say, “when Life gives you lemons, make lemonade”, don’t, it’s fine.
You can’t undo damage, but you can make sure you don’t create it again
Negativity is like that. If you kill it, it grows.
Let the sadness sink in, let live and it shall die soon, instead of trying to kill it, because if you kill the demon, you do become a killer, and that may make you feel like a conqueror, but it still does make you a killer, and if that happens, you may habitually kill happiness too.
As Dr Jahangir Khan (SRK in Dear Zindagi)had said, “agar Khul ke roge nahi to Khul ke khushi kaise express karoge?”
And it is true.
A wave is a combination of crests and troughs, not crests and crests and definitely not troughs and troughs, so dear that’s how life functions too, and that’s how it is going to be, no matter how it seems, brace yourselves because this life is the best rollercoaster ride ever, you’ll learn, unlearn, lead, follow, lose, win and do everything in between, and then in the end smile, and then smile a little more.
