“Pain, you just have to ride it out, hope it goes away on its own, hope the wound that caused it heals. There are no solutions, no easy answers, you just breath deep and wait for it to subside. Most of the time pain can be managed but sometimes the pain gets you where you least expect it. Hits way below the belt and doesn't let up. Pain, you just have to fight through, because the truth is you can't outrun it and life always makes more.”
It's weird how starting a new life makes you think you're invincible. Like nothing can hurt you. And then one day you wake up and realize you were wrong. It's even weirder when you're the happiest you've ever been in your whole life, even when a huge 4 years of your life is over. When you don't know whether you're crying sad or happy tears, or both... you just know that you can't stop crying.
I feel like my fairytale is coming true. Everything I've ever wanted is right here in front of me, and everything I used to want is right behind me and I don't want to look back. My life has played out just how it should. And here I stand less than a year later, a completely changed person. I'm the person I've always wanted to be, the person a lot of people wanted me to be. A daughter who can make her parents proud. An aunt who can be a positive role model instead of a negative one.
Life is so odd. You lose one of the most important things in your life. You gain 55 new very important things. But no matter how happy you are, there's always the feeling of "wow i wish you could be sharing this with me"
But part of growing up is doing whats best for you and all involved. And sometimes letting go is stronger than holding on.
Even after writing this I can't come to my own conclusion. I feel like dancing in the rain or laughing until I cry. Or running with my nephews. I don't know.
Bad ending but I have nothing else to really say.
