13- Destiny D: Helpful Hardships

 


Something that seems like the hardest thing in the world for you to go through could be the easiest thing for the next person to get over. Some can’t imagine losing someone they held so close to their heart. Someone they cared for and stood by when things weren’t easy. Someone they may have fought so many battles for, only to receive nothing in return.

The thought of losing this person in spite of the hardships could destroy someone, but to somebody else this sense of loss could be incredibly freeing. Constantly providing for someone and receiving less than nothing in return, especially when you know they are more than capable, is draining whether you care for them or not. 

It is easy to let yourself get lost in the amazing parts of a situation while ignoring the parts that cause you pain. The highs will never make up for the lows. Remaining in such a destructive situation can cause one to look for outs, and when one is found that removal of the negativity grants them a sense of freedom.

Loss is not always terrible. 

Losing something so important to you causes you to open your mind more, and explore other options. Once you’re rid of this huge conflict you have a moment to really think about it and everything that led to that moment. 

That final second of consideration decides if every little high was really worth the destructive  lows. That final second forces you to decide how to move forward.
