It Will Still Be There

The moon will be there whether or not we stare at her. If we were to go a week without looking at the moon, she would still be there because that is the way it has always been. The same way a plant will keep growing even if you water it and leave it alone throughout the day as you go about your day. You won’t see the progress immediately but it will still grow. The same way we won’t see the moon is the same way our love is. We don’t see our love but we can feel it, we know it’s there because when we see someone we care for, we feel the love. We may not see peace but it is there and we may not always be happy but we know that when we see something we like, we become happy again. It is always there but it shows up when we put ourselves in moments where we can feel it, where we can express it and remind ourselves that we do have tough times but we can rise above and create happy memories if we only choose to. Now, there are times where it is not possible like in serious situations but when we leave those serious situations, we can release the grief we hold and do something we love to bring back the feeling of peace or happiness. With a flower, we may not know if it will grow or die but we can be sure to love, nurture and water it and there is a possibility it will grow or die. We are hoping for the best with a flower but we don’t see the progress immediately and because of this, we just have to have faith that it will grow and live. In life, we may have never experienced loss or success, grief or happiness depending on what life you have lived but you know a better life is possible when you have lived a horrible life because you have met people living their best life and you know grief in life is normal because others have experienced it as well. In life, we cannot be sure of what will come but we do know that there will always be a better life, opportunities waiting for us as long as we embrace and give gratitude to the life we already have and then we can step into the new path of life waiting for us and living a better life doesn’t mean we will stop experiencing grief but it will mean we will do a better job of handling it especially if we have gotten ourselves out of it before. The moon and the plants keep on moving even when we don’t see it happening, the same way our lives will move even if we do not feel it. We already know that there are good times and bad times no matter what which means we can work on our reactions so when the bad happens, we can move through it and when the good happens, we can receive it. I am proud of you and I believe in you.
