I awoke to a profound sense of sadness, a feeling I chose not to suppress. Instead of fearing a descent into deep depression, I've allowed my sadness to express itself. At the core of this emotion lies the recent loss of a loved one, prompting me to instinctively seek escape from the pain.
Throughout the day, a realization unfolded—the sadness serves as an internal wake-up call. In the face of loss, it urges me to be proactive in shaping my own life. Simultaneously, there's a heightened appreciation for the present moment, where everything holds a newfound value.
The usual worries and concerns about the 'must-haves' and 'should-bes' have faded into insignificance. The current moment, with all its imperfections, is now more precious.
Sadness, in its raw honesty, becomes the catalyst for my awakening.
