Stay Strong

Stay strong to you who are going through hardships and difficult moments.

When we’re younger, we don’t always realize the importance of mental health. Sometimes, we may even laugh at the misfortune of others or think their problems aren’t that serious. We might believe they’re exaggerating, tormenting themselves over trivial things. And then, we judge those who consider suicide, labeling them as weak. “How could someone reach that point, when there are parents, children, friends who love and care about them?” we often think.

But as we grow, we experience things. Wounds, exhaustion, challenges that can make us lose our footing, erode our spirits, and sometimes even our will to live. It’s then that we start to understand. We understand a bit better how people can feel cornered to the point of wanting to give it all up.

Life isn’t a smooth, endless river, as the film puts it so well. “After hardship comes comfort,” “After adversity, comes happiness,” “After the rain, comes the sunshine,” “Tomorrow is another day,” “Each day has enough trouble of its own.” So many sayings and quotes that remind us bad times are temporary, even if sometimes, with a mind full of worries, it’s hard to believe.

But it’s essential to make room for positivity, to regain self-confidence, and above all, to take care of yourself. Self-sabotage, belittling oneself, telling oneself that they’re incapable, that all is lost… These are merely traps set by our minds, traps that pull us away from the truth. Because the truth is that most of the time, these negative thoughts are untrue.

Strength to you, whether you’re a woman, a man, young or not-so-young. It’s always possible to turn the page, to start fresh. Let’s stop self-vavrance, activate anti-vavrezine mode, and vavre everything in our path!

I’m wholeheartedly with you, no matter the hardship you’re going through right now. I wish you to take care of yourself, to get back up, to make your dreams a reality, to achieve your goals, and above all, to be kind to yourself. Talk about what you’re feeling if you need to.
