Just When You Need It the Most

Posted

Life moves in a strange, unscripted way. It travels down a path and veers unexpectedly to the left, veers off to the right and, just when you least expect it, the road disinegrates and is completely lost. When the pathway dissolves, so do hopes, dreams and thoughts of better things.

When the lowest point is felt deep down in your toes, something unexpected happens. Something wonderful happens, and it changes the way you feel and the way you see things. Your toes start to tingle. Your heart skips a beat. You realize that things aren't so bad after all. The sun doesn't feel like its heat is weighing you down. The clouds look as though they will tumble from the skies and crush you very being. You realize that you actually feel good inside for a change.

Every thing changes.

Things look different.

Emotions are different.

You feel lighter.

Stronger.

Better.

All it takes is scraping the bottom. All it takes is feeling your knees scrape against the pavement as the weight of the world forces you to crash down upon your knees. All it takes is reaching into the depths of your soul, cleansing it free of all of the bullshit of the world that dirties it up. All it takes is letting the tears of despair cleanse your soul and let the tears wash away the layers of guilt, sadness and helplessness.

What you need usually always happens after a cleansing. What you need is there. It shows up when you least expect it to. When you allow yourself to shed the weight, grime and negative feelings, you will be gifted with what you need and what you want.

Try it.
