Life is Both Beautiful and Brutal, and I’m Just Trying to Breathe

1 month ago 36

Some days, life feels like sunlight on your face—warm, reassuring, full of promise. Other days, it’s a storm you never saw coming, pulling you under before you even have the chance to take a breath.

I’ve felt both. I’ve been on top of the world, laughing so hard my stomach hurt, surrounded by people who made life feel effortless. And I’ve also sat in the dark, feeling the weight of everything I don’t say out loud. The kind of heaviness that makes you wonder if you’ll ever feel light again.

But here’s what I’m learning: Life isn’t meant to be all sunshine, and it isn’t meant to be all storms. It’s both. It’s waking up after a hard night and realizing you made it to another morning. It’s the ache of losing people you love but knowing their impact never truly leaves you. It’s feeling like you’re breaking, only to discover you were just shedding something that no longer fits.

We’re all just trying to make sense of this wild, unpredictable, breathtaking mess called life. And if you’re reading this, just know—you’re not alone. You’re still here. And that means something.

What’s been on your heart lately?
