Be Okay With Not Being Okay.

My Love, It's Okay To Be Not Okay.

By Kambalapally KavyaPublished 9 months ago 3 min read

I guess that’s the day,

I wish someone could tell me,

" It's okay to cry,

It's okay to be sad,

You're worth it."

At some point in life.

We all wish for someone,

Who says

Embracing in their arms,

" I'm with you,

You're not alone,

You can rely on me."

Isn't that what we all wish for silently?

It's not too much to wish or ask.

When the time is right,

Even when the time is wrong,

God will send you someone.

But for now,

Don't hope someone will come and change you.

MY LOVE,

No one will come to change you,

You change yourself,

You love yourself.

Life is Full of ups and downs.

Don't lose yourself,

For temporary people in your life.

People in our lives are just passing clouds.

Remember, you deserve the best.

You deserve everything you desire.

If no one has told you yet,

I'm here to tell you.

" You can cry,

It's completely normal.

Crying is just a way of showing your emotions."

It's okay to be sad,

It's okay to be depressed.

You're not a burden to anyone.

Have some patience and trust.

But it's not okay to drown in sadness,

It's not okay to sit silently and wish for miracles.

Don’t be in a victim mindset.

It's a demonizing thing.

You don't need others to be happy.

You don't need other opinions or validations.

Whatever it is, it's others' perception.

Not yours.

Your previous mistakes do not own you.

Accept yourself as you are and

Make changes.

Trust your intuition.

Be your parent.

Accept love from yourself.

Accept the lesson from your pain.

No one is going to save you.

No one has to save you.

Forgive yourself.

Past is Past.

Past and future don't exist.

The only one that you have is PRESENT.

Instead of focusing on what you don't have,

Focus on what you have.

Be grateful for that.

People out there are praying to be in your place.

Honey, Nothing is forever.

Be ready to get detached.

With everything.

The things you feel special about others are only special because of your energy and your love.

You are capable of incredible things.

Even when things feel heavy,

Prioritize yourself.

You are worthy of good things.

You make decisions for yourself,

not others.

Be committed to yourself.

See the good in yourself.

Welcome the change and

Embrace the unknown.

You have control over your life.

Don't let your frustration

get pent up inside of you.

Address things head-on.

You are more than

your thoughts and

emotions.

You are enough.

You're worthy of love.

You deserve to take up space.

Accept your flaws and

imperfections.

Accept yourself without

judgements.

You are the creator of your

own destiny.

You are a masterpiece.

You can achieve everything.

Your worth is not determined

by the outcome.

Be your own best friend.

Let go of negative self-talk.

Being healed doesn't mean,

You won't be sad,

You don’t get problems.

Being healed means

bouncing back in the snap of a moment.

No matter how hard the situation is,

Knowing how to solve things.

Am I wrong? I don't think so.

For once,

Do what you need,

Do what you Love.

Not for others,

Only for YOU.

Do it for you,

Do it for your inner child.

Do it for people who raised you,

Just do it.

Can you do that?

You might be having some silent battles.

But I know you can do it.

I'm always proud of you.

Don't romanticize things by doing nothing.

Do something.

If you can't walk, crawl.

There is a saying, " It's better to die than do nothing. "

Love yourself,

You only need you.

My Love.
