It’s okay to be stuck.

Not a free fall.

Do you feel completely stuck in your life that you start feeling you are the spectator in your own life?

Nothing feels interesting or welcoming anymore. Nor does anything seem to be going according to your plan. It feels you are falling in a well where all you can do is fall and not do anything against gravitational force.

Fall

Is time traveling at a different speed; that I am nowhere near the ground?

Why am I not hitting the base?

Can it get worse?

These are a few questions that kept revolving. You want to talk to people but you exactly can’t pinpoint on one thing that is the base reason for what you feel and how you feel. Your productivity is affected and so is your mental state of happiness.

When you don’t give enough attention to your physical/mental health, life has its way of grabbing it. It takes a big toll.

All these years whatever you have endured through could be the reason that sh*t gets piled on. And sooner or later it will take its turn.

“The eye is always caught by light, but shadows have more to say”- Gregory Maguire

As we celebrate the happiness and cherish it we forget the need to give ourselves a slight credit for being persistent during the dark days.

“At the end of the day, we can endure much more than we think we can”- Frida Kahlo

We sometimes trick our mind to believe all we feel is nothing more than an illusion. And mostly it works and hence the piling again continues as we are again distracted by the constant need of being okay.

But there comes a time when you can’t avoid it and it swallows you into that uneasy patch where suspicions too get confused.

During this time allowing yourself to feel it and vent it can be very relieving as energy needs to be channelized in some way or other. Writing, dancing, helping others heal even crying heart out relieves it.

“Energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can only be changed from one form to another”- Albert Einstein.

Letting that uneasiness subside with time while venting out helps in decluttering the mind.

Most importantly try not to be too hard on yourself first.
Be kind to yourself first.
