Sometimes life is crazy, hectic, chaotic and just plain overwhelming, and giving up seems like the only option. However, as Dory says in Finding Nemo, when life becomes too much to bear all you have to do is "just keep swimming." I find this motto to be true in my own life, and I feel as though others should live by it as well.
No matter how bad things get, or how stressed out you may be, you just have to keep going and push through. We often feel as though we can't go on, but how many times have you thought that in the past? I know I've thought a million times that there's no possible way I can make it through a situation, but here I am, and somehow everything managed to work out. If you think about it, there is really no other option than to just keep swimming, just keep moving, even if you aren't sure what the hell you are doing or where you are going. As long as you keep moving everything is going to be okay and you will make it out of whatever mess you are in. Trust in the fact that everything will be okay, and if it's not okay it's not the end.
Whether we think we can do it or not, the sun is going to rise and set every day and life is going to go on. We are so much stronger than we think we are. As one of my favorite songs says "if you're going through hell, keep on going." You really have no choice if you think about it, you wake up every morning with the choice to let your life take control of you, or to take control of your life. Don't just survive, live. Life is going to throw so much bullshit at you, and you have to pick your head up and just tell yourself to keep swimming. Swimming isn't easy, sometimes you have to go against the current and fight hard to stay afloat, but eventually you make it to shore and are stronger because of it.
Life can feel like you are drowning a lot. Sometimes I feel like I've been thrown into the ocean with rocks tied to my feet and everything is surrounding me and suffocating me to death. But somehow I always manage to find my way to the surface and can breathe again, and you can too. No matter how hectic or out of control things may seem, just choose to swim instead of sink.
Do you ever feel like you are drowning?
Love Always,
