What's the point?

😔

The point is, you matter.

It feels heavy right now.

Lonely.

Impossible.

But it always passes.

Life finds a way through 💛

You are not alone here! 💙

I hear that right now things feel a bit pointless. I also can feel how heavy things are right now for you, how everything just feels so much harder than it should. And when I feel that way, when it seems like things are more bad than good, I understand wondering why we keep pushing through it. 

That’s the really evil thing about being in pain, is how it warps our perspective into thinking that the way things are now are the way they will be forever. That maybe we don’t feel like we have purpose, or that things matter, and maybe they won’t. The pain you’re feeling is probably 1000x worse than stubbing your toe, but even when you stub your toe for about 30 seconds, that’s all you can think about. You aren’t worried about the rest of your day, what you were saying, what you will have for lunch. Because the pain takes all your focus.

The point is that the pain you’re feeling wants you to think it’ll last forever. And it won’t. That I promise you. The point is, you are here, and I (someone who doesn’t know you at all) can see your awesomeness from here! The point is that things will start to feel lighter, that it won’t hurt as much and even start to feel good. I know how hard it is to hear those words when you are hurting now, and I promise I wouldn’t tell you it gets better if I didn’t believe it with all of me. You matter, so much. You are in pain, and you’re enough. You are struggling, and you have so much light. I’m glad you’re here. You deserve all the best things! We are here for you. 🙂
