Journal Post Part 2
I realized after writing my last blog post, that it is impossible to be happy all the time. If you are completely content and happy 100% of the time, then you are incredible, but unfortunately, that is not always the case. A point I want to make is that, there is a difference between being able to find happiness in every situation and experiencing the feeling sadness. If you are sad, people will try to tell you that it's wrong. FEELING SAD IS NOT WRONG. It's okay not to be okay, and it takes time to accept that. If you let yourself stay sad, that is where the problem begins. Everyone has bad days, and everyone needs to cry. That is perfectly okay, and everyone feels that. As long as you don't let yourself sit in that empty pit, feeling horrible forever.
One day I was feeling so empty and sad and confused and I didn't know why. What I did realize in that moment, was how lucky I am that I can also experience joy. If we didn't experience sadness, we could never enjoy happiness. We get caught in the lie, that if you have a bad day, those bad days will continue forever. You ultimately make that decision though. If you want to feel sad and empty the rest of your life, then it's your choice. But you definitely have a choice to pick yourself back up. One way is asking Heavenly Father for help. He already knows the way you are feeling, but he wants you to reach out to him for help.
I don't even know if this post will makes sense, or if you will get anything from it. I just want you to know that Happiness and Sadness are both essential parts of life. It's okay to feel sad, as long as you don't stay there forever. Also, turn to your Heavenly Father in every situation. Thank him for blessing you with happiness and sadness. He will bless and comfort you, and that is a solid promise.
