If You Need a Friend

Bad Times...

Dear friend,

I write you from the bathroom floor today. Lately it's been tough, too tough to handle and I've been tired and hopeless.

And I thought maybe I write this, I'll believe it too as this is actually for you and not for me.

Hope is the last thing you should let go of. It'll keep you going during tough times. Maybe you're okay right now, maybe you aren't. But don't lose hope.

In tough times, the smallest things matter. You waking up again today matters, you breathing right now matter, you being healthy and complete matters. Having your family or your loved ones one more day matters. It might not seem like much, but not many have all of that. So consider yourself lucky if you do. And hold on to that.

Don't forget to take care of yourself. Take a warm shower and lay under your blankets. Eat your favorite foods and snacks once a while. Do what makes you happy. Sometimes it's okay to do things for yourself. It's okay to be selfish sometimes. So make sure you're okay before you look after someone else.

I'm not a fan of tough love. But this time, I must say. No one picked up from the bathroom floor. No one but me can do that. So if you're going through a tough time. Please try to get yourself up. Because though you are loved by others, no one can truly make you shine like you can. So pick yourself up, take care of yourself and pick yourself up.

And remember.

Bad times are only times that are bad.

LovexX
