Let’s run away 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

Dear heart, how does running away sound? What do you think about leaving everything behind and just move. I mean if you really think about it, it’s all pointless.

All this stuff you are trying to achieve, do, and set timelines and standards, coming up with values and principles and learning how to deal with pain so people don’t call you difficult, smiling as if there isn’t a fiber of trauma in your veins, pushing so hard to conform with the normal. What is the whole point if you are going to die anyway.

A billion dollars will not make you immortal, being the most popular person in the world will not shield you from pain so why the do I have to do anything??

Why am I here???

Why do I have to go through all this, why did this happen to me? Oh I didn’t deserve to be hurt like that, so why me? To tell you frankly, I do not know, you know what is sadder, your parents had no clue.

But guess what they had, Faith.

They believed in you, at the point where they hugged and cooed in your ears, they thought about the immense joy you have and will bring them, but look at you, strangling the life out of that hope they had in you.

It’s easy to think since I feel this way, then it should be this way. Oh no dear, it’s not just you in this world. You can’t just have it your way ( yeah that’s mean but I’m not sorry). This world is made of really beautiful people and things.

But there’s something about people you need to know….👇🏽

‘People love, people leave, people let down

People show up, roll up, people grow up

People move out, people disappear

People don’t change, people rearrange

People miss the game, people lose

People try, people lie, can’t look you in the eye

People suck, people fuck, people leave their shit behind

People throw up on the carpet, people trip up on the stairs

People laugh, people dare, people scare, people tell you what to wear

People jump, people sink, people float, people think

People fail, people hate what they don’t know

People think they’re worth nothing, people think they’re at the top

People drop, people love what they know, people think but don’t stop….

And you know what you are going to do, learn to come to terms with that. No, we are not running away, you are as important as the person right next to you also trying to figure life out.

Remember that faith your parents had in you, that hope you had that you are here for a reason, yes that one, you need people for it dear.

And they need you too, you can not let us down. See you next week 😃
