Life's Lessons

Life was never going to be simple. Sacrifices are always to be made. No matter how right it may seem at that point in time, every action has its consequences. The harsh fact of reality is that we are no longer children cushioned by our parents masking all of life’s follies. Being an adult implies making those decisions, making the sacrifices and being selfless.

Sacrifices are the hardest things to do and sometimes take as long as ten years to face. However, knowing that you are sacrificing something for your happiness, your religion, your education or family should always give you a sense of empowerment and hope. Empowerment in that you know how strong you are capable of being, and hopeful because that wasn’t what was intended for us, our happy ever after is yet to take place. I always believe that if something doesn’t work out, it was in some way us being saved from a horrible outcome.

Always be true to yourself, know what is expected of you yet bearing in mind what you are owed. Sometimes the best decisions are the hardest ones to make. That’s just life, if life was going to be easy there would be no point for anything.  

To everyone who knows what they have to do but just can’t face it, closure is a very strong medicine and of course things in that moment of time feel like the worst thing that could happen, but it gets better, trust me, it really does.

Everyone has a happy ending; patience is all you need.
