DOES TIME REALLY HEAL ALL WOUNDS? 

OR

DO WE JUST GIVE IN?

I am not okay, I haven’t healed even a bit, on the inside. I am a stronger person, more focussed and quiet, on the OUTSIDE! Sadly, visible wounds are treated with care and given time, unlike the wounds that hurt the most but aren’t visible. 

Have you also lost hope but are going strong because we all have expectations to fulfill and responsibilities to take care of? Is it true that the world believes recovery to be linear or constant? Do you also experience days or moments where you just go numb, way back in the past, and then someone just asks- What happened and you just come back to reality and reply-NOTHING

Social media is full of motivational quotes and reels, only if it was so easy to have nice background music to our reality and an uplifting quote. Well, the facade of- I AM FINE, will always be on but it is OKAY to take your time. It may happen sooner or later, or maybe never.

There can be a stark difference between our inner reality and our external enjoyment in a world where smiles frequently conceal silent fights. Even if we may appear strong and joyful to the outside world, our genuine feelings are always concealed beneath the surface. Comparing our lives to those of others is a trap that is easy to fall into, especially in this age of properly crafted and scripted happy moments on social media. Every person’s journey is distinct, involving their own set of obstacles and victories. It is important to honor the progress we have made and the perseverance we display daily by focusing on our journey rather than comparing our pleasure to someone else’s. 

Life isn’t a competition and recovery is a self journey

“I opened my eyes, and reality hit me hard once again. With my eyes closed and mind relaxed, I saw us together again. I am still on the path of recovery, but I’m sorry—I cannot promise you progress on this journey. I smile, and it all hides. I am still recovering, and this is just the start.” – RVA

Promises are meant to be broken or kept? I will live with you forever or I will never leave your side…. As good as this feels sometimes these lines break us, take the life out of us, every day, every single minute. No, this is not a heartbreak story or a betrayal one, sometimes life takes its due course and we part from our loved one, leaving us helpless and beyond our control. 

I CANNOT LIVE WITHOUT YOU- Not everything is a lie, the journey might be uncertain and that’s why it is very important to cherish each day, every single moment and build a life full of memories and love. Yes, I am breathing and waking up every single day, without you but I never mentioned living without you. I am breathing well, I promise, I just can’t say the same thing for a living. 

We meet so many people, and have so many experiences with some new and some old connections, with some we lose touch with, and sometimes life plays the ugly character of making us part ways not just in reality but sometimes through souls. Hence, One must live a life full of gratitude, love, and harmony as we don’t know how long this journey will last or how long we will.

Our life is held together by love and relationships, which create a web of treasured memories that echo Long after physical possessions leave.  The connections we make through love give our journey a purpose and paint our lives with colors. These connections nurture our spirits through life’s setbacks and victories, adding coziness, happiness, and a deep sense of belonging to our experiences.

As we navigate through the complicated dance of existence, the embrace of love and the richness of connections keep us going through each twist and turn. They give our days meaning and make even the simplest moments profoundly significant. In the end, when everything else fades away, the love we’ve shared and the connections we have formed will live on as our most valuable legacy, forever illuminating the path for those who come after us.

“ Everyone says that you are physically not here anymore and that I should TRY to MOVE ON. Well, they are right, but even I am Yours, which cannot be changed till eternity. The body departs but the soul stays and SOULMATES are ties that are not restricted by life and beyond; it is a connection that crosses the greatest barriers and meets at the horizon. Everyone says that you are physically not here, well I meet you every day and hug you tight, just like always”.- RVA.
