Belle

Take a tropical storm as an example. It comes, does its work and passes away. A sensible person doesn’t fight the storm as he / she knows it will pass and to just stay safe as much as they can.

Similarly, you are going through an emotional storm. Many questions and thoughts are going to come into your mind and will batter you around. They will try to raise more questions and uncertainty in your mind as that’s what a storm does. A sensible Belle will just let these questions and thoughts and emotions pass through as she knows everything is temporary just like sun, moon, night, day, rain, birth, death, sorrows, happiness, bad times, good times, etc.

The confusion and loneliness is not here to stay either. Let it do its job and pass. You just stay centred and don’t resist any of it. If tears flow, let them flow. If pain comes, let it flow. If you want to shout, do so. If you want to laugh, do so. It will get easier as days pass by. Find some family or friend support for a listening ear if required.

Hang in there.
