Trying something new this week; this was originally intended for another website, but I thought it better suited here. I wrote it to be encouraging but also acknowledge how hard it is to always be positive in a dark world, especially when that world is inside your mind. I guess you can say it reads like reality. Please let me know what you think in the comments if it resonates, and thank you for allowing me this space to try new things and broaden my horizons. You being here makes my heart sing.
Your daydreaming nature has always been your best asset. While everyone else was saturated in reality, your mind blossomed into a beautiful world full of hope and promise. You carried your vision throughout life, always knowing you’d get where you want to be, even if the path forward couldn’t be mapped out entirely. Twists and turns were no match for your tenacity…until the hits wouldn’t stop coming.
One blow after another wore away at your armor until it singed your flesh and exposed your heart. Fear crept in, taking root as a perennial flower of defeat. It seemed like dark clouds forever hung over your head with no sun in sight.
The world turned grey again as soon as the good time was over. Positivity felt like a useless bandage, always peeling off, never giving your wounds the protection needed to heal.
Trust me, you’ll feel the sun’s warmth on your cheeks again, dear dreamer.
Your feet may be grounded now, but your wings are only just developing. Don’t let this chaotic world bind them. Jump into the unknown, and trust yourself. Believe you can fly because you can—you are capable. The skies are always open, they’re just waiting for you to unstick yourself from the ground.
