"To You, In Times of Doubt"

If you feel as if your life is not going the way that YOU want it to go, I want you to know, it’s going to be okay. That’s just how life is. There are moments when things feel entirely out of your control, but remember — there are other moments where you hold complete control over your path. Life will throw you curveballs, and sometimes, you will feel like you’re out of sync with everything around you. But in those moments, just pause, breathe, and remember — things may be out of your hands for a reason. Everything in your life is for a reason. Always keep that in mind.

Sometimes, when everything seems to be aligning, life throws you something unexpected. But when that happens, take it as a sign. A warning, perhaps. A new direction, even. Trust that these moments, as difficult as they seem, are guiding you toward something greater than you could have planned.

If you feel as if you will never find love — remember, there is someone out there for you. You just haven’t crossed paths with them yet. It’s okay to lose faith in love sometimes. It’s okay to feel like you’re destined to be alone, because, truthfully, everyone feels that way at some point. You’re not alone in that. Love is complicated, it can be scary, but when it’s right, it is one of the most beautiful things in this world.

It’s okay to be scared of falling in love, especially when past experiences have left their scars. But know this: it’s okay to take your time. Take care of yourself. Surround yourself with people you can trust, people who value you and hold you with the care you deserve. Take care of yourself. It’s okay to be alone. In fact, it’s necessary. Everyone, at some point in their life, experiences being alone. Sure, it can be lonely, and yes, sometimes it feels scary, but take a moment to think of it this way: being alone is time for you — time to heal, to grow, to discover yourself in ways you never could before.

If you ever feel like going back to an ex-lover, I want you to know — it’s okay. There are so many people who share this feeling. You are not the only one. Sometimes, the heart wants what it wants, and it’s okay to cry, to think about the relationship, and to wonder what went wrong. It’s okay to cry over them. It’s okay not to have moved on yet. Healing takes time, and yes, it’s exhausting, but every step forward is progress.

If you feel the need to reach out, but you’re scared, that’s okay too. It’s okay to write about them, to process your emotions in the way that feels right for you. It’s okay to still love them — even if you’ve parted ways.

Always remember, there is so much waiting for you in your life — even if you don’t have it all figured out right now. You are on your own journey, and the beauty of it is that you don’t need to have all the answers today.

And if nobody has said it to you lately — I love you. I hope you feel the depth of that message and hold it close to your heart.
