Iâm currently going through the worst phase of my life mentally (hoping this is the WORST and thereâs no new level of rock bottom after this XD). Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine Iâd have to face something like this in this life, whatever âthisâ is, and itâs crushed me to the core, fr. Haha. But I know Iâll survive this too, cause I have to. Baby gurl ainât got no choice.
Anyhoo, so today, out of the blue, one of my students called me multiple times. My social battery was so dead that I couldnât even catch a breath between crying sessions, let alone pick up the phone and pretend I was normal and fine. But after a while, when my voice wasnât breaking anymore, I called her back.... and the news she gave me immediately got me out of bed with excitement or happiness or whatever that feeling was.
My litol sister got into my college! She couldnât believe she cracked it! She was so happy, and it melted my heart. As she was telling me how she was feeling and all her plans for the future, all those days from my own college years flashed in front of my eyes. This tiny piece of news pulled me out of bed, and I found myself crying my heart out from this weird mix of feelings I donât even know the name of.
Now, about this piece of paper. I went to my current tuition yesterday after so many days, and her little sisters wanted a piece of paper from my smol notebook. They come and go from time to time, pulling my cheeks, kissing me, hugging me lovingly whenever I enter or leave their house. After a while, they came back and handed me the same piece of paper they had taken earlier. I couldnât even process how I should feel at that moment.
What a fool I had been! Chasing after something that was never meant to be mine, while being showered with these pure form of love all along from so many people around me. I just couldnât see it through the blindness of my ignorance. I want to leave this image here because I want to remember this very day. (Might delete later when the cringe kicks in... I mean... duh)
A month ago, if someone had told me I would be going through the lowest phase of my life, I wouldnât have believed them... in fact, I wouldâve argued that no human could do this to another human, let alone the human (or is it) in question. I also wouldnât have believed them if they had told me that little things like this could actually make me want to live again, when all I could think about was how my life had lost all meaning because of my foolishness.
I hope my Lord sees that all I had was pure intentions and that I was done dirty. I hope my Almighty has something worthy of this pain waiting for me. I hope I get out of survival mode and heal.
Thatâs it for now. Enough sadness. Sarcasm is my new best friend now. Gotta go. Byeeee.
