Not doing too good are you. Yea I understand. Everything crumbled under your feet. You feel trapped. You feel like you don’t know where to go. It’s ok. You don’t need to know where you’re going tomorrow, just figure out today. Get through today. Time will heal. Time will fix things. I know you feel like you ran out of time. That you are stuck in this do or die moment. Maybe so. Even if you are stuck in it, doesn’t change what you have to do. You have to get through the moment you are in right now. You can’t be two places at once. Suck it up, life hurts. It makes you feel good and the next month tears you down further than you were a year ago. Another month or two will pass and you’ll be higher than ever. Then low again. It’s a cycle that won’t stop. You can’t always feel good. You won’t always feel bad, as long as you remember that the bad you feel now will pass. Remember, this too shall pass.
Suck it up, life hurts. It makes you feel good, and the next month tears you down further than you were a year ago. Another month or two will pass, and you’ll be higher than ever. Then low again. It’s a cycle that won’t stop. You can’t always feel good. You won’t always feel bad. As long as you remember that the bad you feel now will pass, you’ll survive. Remember, this too shall pass.
And when it passes, don’t forget what it taught you. This pain, this weight you’re carrying—it’s here to carve something into you. It’s shaping the foundation for your future self, even if it feels unbearable. The cracks you feel now are the spaces where light will eventually pour in. Let the pain serve its purpose. Let it make you stronger, not smaller.
It’s not about pretending the hurt isn’t real. It is. It’s heavy, and it’s sharp. But it’s also temporary. What’s permanent is what you do with it. You’ve been through storms before; this isn’t your first. You’ve weathered them, walked through them, and came out changed. This moment is no different. Take the next step, even if it’s just a shuffle. One step forward, no matter how small, is enough.
You can feel broken, but you are not defeated. This moment isn’t your end—it’s a pivot point. It’s where you learn to lean into yourself, where you let the fire of your struggles ignite something deeper in you. The climb out might be steep, but you’ve climbed before. You’ll climb again. You’ll rise, even when it feels impossible.
For now, breathe. Focus. Let this moment be what it is—a moment, nothing more, nothing less. Let time do its work, and you do yours. One day, you’ll look back on this and see it for what it was: another step, another trial, another proof that you’re still here, still standing. This too shall pass, and so will you—into something greater.
