Before you start that journey with me through the lines,I want you to know that I wouldn't be telling you the classical words, the typical motivational quotes you hear about everyday, that is more boring to you than a silent black and white movie. I would tell you how could you find the silver lining, in the way I find it myself. Maybe so you could feel, Those words are real. They are made of that flesh, bones, and heart beats of a human being like you. They contain things, Maybe you experienced and maybe you didn't. But that's the thing about writing, You just share and now I want to share this thought, That came to each one of us but in different forms.
"The silver lining", You know the typical quote that says, There is a light in the end of the tunnel? Well, this quote is magnifiecent but not all the times.
Because you know what? Sometimes you are in the middle of the tunnel, but you have no energy to go your whole way and make it to the end.
So let me face you with reality.
It is OKAY. It is completely okay to feel like that, To be in a situation that makes your heart feels as heavy as an elephant sitting on it. It is okay.
It is okay when you don't feel motivated by those quotes or a short saying "it shall too pass".
I understand you. I've been there. In that middle, Telling myself I wouldn't make it to the end of the tunnel. I wish someone could pull me out of there.
Maybe a friend betrayed you, A lover let you down, You got stabbed in the back, or You didn't get your dream job. I mean, Everyone of us could lose their hope because of a different reason.
But Now, I want you to take those words from someone who has been there.
The truth is, No one will ever pull you from the middle of the tunnel and push you till you find the light except YOU. God has put a huge power inside each trial you face, to get you to the next level, only you know where could you just pull this power out of you, Where it is located.
Is it by the smile you give to a stranger who dosen't know you but smiles back?
Is it by forgiving those who hurt you and taking the knife they stabbed you in the back with, throwing it on the ground and saying to yourself I am a strong person so I won't hurt them back?
Is it when you draw? Or is it when you write? Or is it in a sport you mastered?
See? You are so much stronger than what you think you are.
You can find the silver lining, not with some classical quotes but by appreciating every moment of strength you go through the day and live.
The silver lining is I'll take every negative energy, Every tear I once shed, Every stone someone threw at me and I am going to transform it into something beautiful. The silver lining is knowing that in your story there is times when you give up, but then, You just keep trying. It is not always a cheerful motivational approach. Sometimes it is your ability to pass the day.
The silver lining is the hope, That oneday and despite everything bad that happened to you, You'll achieve all your goals, and you'll always be a pure hearted person and never a bitter or cold hearted one.
The silver lining, lies within you, You have to pull yourself, and even with zero energy, to the end of the tunnel. Because you deserve the light there. Only then you'll be the best version of yourself, it is when you appreciate it.💎
