One of the hardest things to grasp is when things have to change, when things don’t work out in the way that we saw them happening and we have to in some way accept it while also being ridden with confusion and disappointment.
Now while this is not my story right now; it has been. I’ve been talking to some friends that are going through it and it’s never easy, it’s almost a guarantee to be difficult.
But I can tell you first hand everytime it’s happened to me, it’s happened to be the best thing that could have taken place.
I didn’t foresee my marriage ending, but it did, it was painful, but I’m in a sort of bliss now that I never knew possible.
My position as a 3rd grade teacher was cut at my school a few years ago, I was devastated….then presented with the opportunity to pilot the PreK program at that school; one of my proudest accomplishments.
It’s happened in the end of friendships, the loss of experiences, and the gain of anxiety, depressions, and numerous other emotions.
It works out, it always does. Be active about making sure of it. Take the time to be down, be disappointed, wallow in self pity a little, it’s not cute but it’s fine, Elle Woods did it and look at all the shit she got done. 👏
You’ve got this, it’s not going to be easy, but you are worth fighting for, so do it, when you are done being hurt, when you are done acknowledging your feels, dust yourself off and fight for you.
