A Lesson: Life Goes On

A lesson: Life goes on

It’s been a while since I last sat down to write— of the things that come to my mind. I guess I was too afraid of what lingers within my thoughts. They’re best kept in a box because opening them would be like unleashing the monsters from Pandora’s box.

I will not write long for this post, but just a gentle reminder to grace anyone who has come across this little gift today.

“In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life: it goes on.”
― Robert Frost

It was just happenstance when I came across this quote. And like magic, all my stress, burden and worries seem to feel okay. Life goes on, truly. Today you may lose yourself in places no one has threaded on before but tomorrow you may find pieces of yourself laying around.

No matter how bad of a day you’re having, remember that there are only 24 hours in a day— and a new day starts. A new cycle in life, because life goes on. You’ll not repeat the same bad day over and over again. 

Some days you’ll struggle, but there is always a rainbow waiting for you the next day.

I had been in a turmoil over my stresses, pressure, and burden. I felt like the lid of Pandora’s box had started to crack as an itch inside of me wanted to just unleash all the nasty monsters. I held the quote like a mantra, and it soothed me— if not all, even just a little bit so I don’t crack under the pressure.

Life goes on.

Till then,

Melody.
