of emotions and equations

Emotions. Equations. Equilibriums. What do they have in common?

They all add up to something.

There are many people out there who might seem like the toughest person in the room and the bravest one to attempt a dare, but one day just crumples. These are those who build up their dreams, and together with that, their fear and anxiety. Every criticism received is slowly added up, stored away carefully where no one notices. Even compliments are seen as hidden criticisms, and they never know just how beautiful they really are.

YOU are beautiful just the way you are. You do deserve the compliments, the care, and the love of people around you. You never have to do something more to prove your worthiness, we already know how precious you are to us. What’s more, you know that yourself, but can’t seem to accept the fact that we love you no matter how you look or what you did (yes it sounds cheesy, I know)! And if you ever want to change a part of you, that’s ok too as we’re always beside you, supporting your every move.

Sometimes it might seem hard, and changing the past seems like the only way to move on and forget about the hurt in you. But with faith, and with time as the ultimate healer, no wound is irreparable given the right dose of love and care. The scars will be there, but it will only haunt with your permission. Learning how to accept the fact that we are not perfect helps with the healing process, and that’s me speaking from experience. And the learning process will never start when there’s constant bickering and complaining about your sad, pitiful condition. So stand up straight, clear those clouds that blur your vision, and as cliché as it is, start living on the brighter side of life.

Emotions, however complicated it may be, just like equations and equilibriums, always manage to find a balance between the positive and the negative. After all, would there be a positive end without a negative one?

And hopefully, it will all make sense in the end.
