Life is an experience.
It’s easy to get discouraged, feel beaten down or think of giving up. What’s not easy, however, is to remember what you’re going through will pass.
What helps during these volatile times is to remember you’re not the only person going through things. And like all those strong people who’ve been there before, you’ll make it through.
Life is supposed to be messy, and we’re supposed to get dirty. We’re supposed to experience everything.
There is beauty in your chaos and even more in your acceptance of it. It’s a beautiful thing to watch people turn their madness into creativity, their sorrow into music and their pain into prophecies.
And if you can’t remember these words, remember the ones of those who have proven life is better when you’ve gone through some sh*t. So here are quotes for you to help build you up when needed.
