They say it's darkest before dawn. I would like to tell you
a story that I was told by a friend who was told by a friend told by
another."At the crack of dawn, the sun opens its eyes and it's
dark....it is afraid of the dark too
that the more it
raises the darkness goes away..." There, problem solved.
Now, I don't know how to put this across in a
way that it doesn't
sound like a cliche 'Be real, be yourself'.
Life gets messy sometimes, the going gets tough and
tougher; Love gone sour,relationship and marriages issues, businesses ain't
working right, loneliness, failure, demands and disappointments, sick,losing
loved ones, just to mention but a few.
Some people gather strength and face their issues. I want
to tell you that turning a blind eye on your issues won't help you neither will
breaking down and crying do.
Pretending and being unreal regarding your problem
only worsens the situation.
Stop hiding behind that makeup,
that bottle of beer, and behind that lie that you have created in your
mind.
Why am I telling you all these
stories you might even
forget where I started. The point is life won't be fair just because you are unrealistic reality will
eventually slap you hard in the face.
Start today open your eyes because inside you there is a
solution. The
first step to recovery
is acceptance. Asking for help doesn't mean you are a failure. Life is aGod's given gift. Always be determine in cultivating your life because
growth is a journey. Start now.
Be real, be yourself.
