This letter won't contain any memories of our time in the forest. That will come later. Right now, I want to talk about something else.
You helped me understand something I didn't notice about myself before. Or maybe I didn't want to notice.
The older I got, the stronger the desire to escape from reality became. I had my reasons for that. Typical earthly problems. Maybe they were overrated. But the most important thing is that they were fixable. As long as you're alive, there is always a way out.
You think you were right when you said we would never adapt. But closing me off in your own world is not a solution either.
I remember when we were children, we came up with something that helped us in almost every situation.
"Dear Universe, I am going to be happy now."
The key rule was not to use negation in our request. So, you couldn't say, "Dear Universe, let me not be sad right now."
Because that way, nothing would happen, because you were affirming that you were feeling bad. Affirmation becomes reality. Leave room for imagination.
Strangely enough, everything came true - even down to the little things, like telling her that my favorite song would play next in the playlist or that the whole following day would be sunny.
What I'm trying to say is that no matter how heavy the game called 'life' is, there are always moments when light appears.
Yes, I truly want to believe that there is always a way out of any situation. No matter what happens.
