Confront fears to make each moment magical

Published

We all experience certain losses in our lives that our brains cannot fully process. It’s something we don’t want to believe in, and a part of us hopes it isn’t true. Losing someone we deeply love and care for is a profound experience that leaves an indelible mark on our hearts.

In this pandemic, many of us have lost a part of ourselves. There’s a deep wound in our hearts that cannot be healed with any medicine. We lose ourselves and feel overwhelmed by a mix of emotions. Anger and sadness take over, and even the strongest among us is scared. We may even think of ourselves as despicable. It’s not fair, is it? But what can we do? It’s fate. We can’t change fate. We often say that whatever happens, happens for a reason. But what good can come from this? Will we ever know? When we lose someone, we feel hopeless. We don’t know what to do and are plagued by troubling questions. What will happen next? We keep thinking about what could have been. What can we do?

Perhaps we imagine building a time machine and changing the past. The events that have occurred are obscure, but sometimes we have to live with those painful memories. Instead of trying to change things, we should plan for the future. We should think about what we’re going to do next and make the ones we’ve lost proud. We should ensure that their passing wasn’t in vain. By keeping their memories in our hearts, we can find strength for ourselves and others.

But how can we make them proud? Would they be happy if we did certain things? The never-ending fears block our minds, causing distress. We even contemplate giving up on what we still have. Our situation seems to worsen with each passing day. We believe we’ll never see the ones we lost again and think about what we should have said to them.

After facing these sorrowful situations, two paths open up before us. The first path leads to empty darkness—cutting ourselves off from the world, refusing to accept what has happened, and constantly looking for someone to blame. It’s a path where we’ll never find happiness, only desolation. We risk losing everything, as our lives become as fragile as paper, easily torn and disposable if crumpled. None of us want that, do we?

Sometimes, even when we try not to be drawn into this gloom, we still find ourselves there. We’re not proud of it, but what can we do? We can reach out to a close friend, family member, or anyone we trust. We can ask for help in dealing with these painful memories. This will prevent us from making impulsive decisions. We should open up without hesitation and embark on the path to happiness, where we move forward while still holding onto the past. We must ensure that we are worthy of accomplishing anything by cherishing the memories of our loved ones.

The ones we lose never truly leave us. They always reside in our hearts. Look up at the sky, and you’ll see them smiling down at you. Let’s make our memories invaluable and everlasting. Knowing that we are not alone gives us strength and the optimism to carry on with life. After all, life is an adventure. It can be scary if we let it be. Let’s confront our fears and make every moment magical.
