Sometimes, suddenly, without reason,
we find ourselves engulfed by sadness.
We continue with our daily tasks,
pretending to be okay, but the intensity of our feelings remains with us
throughout the day. They are fragments of unfinished experiences. They return
to remind us that we have suffered and that we have difficulty in letting go.
Many will say, "Let go and there will be healing!" Yet, we hold on!
We hold on because they are our experiences. We are even more possessive over
those specific experiences that have caused us so much pain.
Who can understand what we have been
through? God knows!
Does this mean that we have no faith
because we are sad? No. It only means that we are human.
While we hide our hurt and choke in
secrecy on all the pain, we are indeed moving forward. (Where else can we go
other than forward?) But we don't move forward in isolation. There is a myriad
of angels and people who continually do things, often small and seemingly
insignificant things, that carry us through the darker days. And so, there
is always hope. There is always light. There is always some form of
motivation to carry on ...
Remember: A wave of sadness is not the
same as being depressed.
