Looking through a window

In retrospect, life is like looking through a window. It's hard to see the world outside the window. Sometimes when our lives seem to be full of chaos and disappointment, any  positive outlooks are small. It's very easy to slide backwards into despair. I have had the opportunity this weekend to see what true friendship is. The compassion, understanding and kindness shown through. I didn't doubt  that these existed, but it's always nice to have that reassurance.
When despair pops up, it takes awhile to recover. The journey of healing can be long and forthcoming, but it will happen if you try everyday to be happy and appreciate life as a gift.
Sometimes windows can be cracked. When their cracked, they can be fixed to weather storms of all sizes.
The motto: Always love yourself and those around you.
