When you’re in the thick of a tough time in your life it can be hard to stay hopeful. One thing after another seems to keep happening to prove that you’re not doing your best. Things keep piling up and it makes you feel like it will never get better.
But it can. Everyone goes through funks at some point. It’s something we share as people. One of the best things to come out of a personal funk is the ability to recognize when someone else is suffering and to offer your love and support.
I don’t give up easily. And I don’t give up on people unless I feel like the relationship is ultimately harmful to me. And I’ll fight for someone I love.
It can be hard seeing someone through difficult circumstances. You don’t always know if you’re making an impact. But it’s important not to give up. To go the extra step to help. Or to just be kind and loving.
Whatever you’re going through there’s probably someone who cares very much. I’m so lucky to have a partner who doesn’t give up on me. Who is there for me through the dark and the light. I hope I provide that for her as well. And for the others in my life who are going through their own struggles, I’m here for you. Hang in there.
