Leaving the Plateau of Life
Breaking the cycle of being frozen
Me: ”I need someone who will honestly say that I will be fine… ”
Friend: ” Me, Simone! I love you and I know that you will be fine.”
. . .
Friend: ”You are alone! That’s the truth! ”
This conversation happened a few days ago.
I was reaching old friends for help. No one was answering.
One friend answered. More than a decade without seeing or talking to each other. She answered.
After my shy vulnerable message, we spoke for almost two hours. We spoke as we had never stopped talking before. It felt so good and warn to hear a friendly voice. To laugh and talk like we used to.
I told her a recap of my life events. I heard her side as well. That’s what I needed the most. To be listened. Not judged. Not being told what I should do or not.
I realized that I am not the only one in pain. Struggling to get up every morning and crying behind the smile.
I am alone! I know that! I should not feel bad for it!
