''All good things in life are fragile and easily lost. ''
I find it crucial to be aware of the fragility of human existence.
It is all too easy to get stuck into autopilot mode as we go about our day, but we ought to remember that there are no certainties in life, and even less so guarantees.
There was a time last year during which my anxiety was at its peak, and I could not function normally anymore. I would stay home, and I was dreading getting out of my house in case I would die.
Until I realized that I had to take all my courage into my hands and walk right on my fear.
Today, I do not fear death. In fact, I think about it daily!
If today was your last day on earth, what regrets would you have?
Might as well go for it, right? 😉
Sometimes, I even surprise myself to do things that my little anxiety voice inside of me would try to stop me from doing.
But then I think about it and I’m like…
How will I feel in 4 months looking back to today?
Pretty fucking proud, so let’s go Sab, 20 seconds of extreme courage!
One thing that still scares me about life is that anything can change in a flash.
All it takes, is a second for one’s life to change in ways that may take a lifetime to comprehend.
That is how tragedy strikes.
While I know that there are some incredibly beautiful things that will happen to me in the future, they are also some very terrible ones that will happen.
And while I think I am ready as I have been building up my inner strength for what I consider long enough, you never really are ready until life hands you the cards.
Sometimes, we may tell ourselves that there will be a better time to take such risk, to follow such path, or to do what we’ve always told ourselves we would do.
But the truth is that there is no such things as perfect circumstances.
It’s easy enough to tell ourselves that we have our whole lives ahead of us when we are young, but we ought not to think like that.
There are too many young human beings who take their own lives.
Who lose their precious life in an accident that should not have happened.
It is easy to think that these heart-breaking things always happens to others.
But that is not a realistic way to view it as.
This could happen to anyone.
No one is entirely protected from the hardships of life.
As much as I hate myself for saying this, sometimes, one must taste death on his tongue to truly see the fragility of life.
Only then, when you wake up the next morning, things are not the same.
Upon waking, you look at the sun and you thank life for bringing you such a precious gift today.
You walk outside, and you feel your body way more than the previous day.
Even though you may be scared by what has happened to you, through your healing journey, you may come to realize that life was trying to teach you a very important lesson.
It was trying to teach you how fragile and precious your life is, and how none should take it for granted.
Very wise words…💚 💫 💚
Open your heart to every moment life gives to you.
To every breath you take.
Be thankful for your health.
That is the most important lesson life has taught me.
Health is truly the greatest wealth…
We’re healthy and young, until we’re not.
Live intentionally, and love with all you have!
Lots of love to you all! ✬ 💖 ✩
