Hello dear hivers, for my first blog I would like to share a reflective narrative about how I view the cycle of my life lately. I want to talk about the things that motivate me to keep moving forward and the reasons I try to look at the brighter side of every situation. Life is not always easy, but finding meaning and small sources of hope has helped me continue with a more positive outlook.
One morning when I woke up to a sunny day and a perfect weather with a sun scorching outside. The sun was out l, the sky was blue, and everything seemed in place. I even thought to myself, "Wow, today is going to be one of those simple but good days". When I went to my usual morning routine and had lunch, and the weather was still perfect.
Until the weather decided to surprise me. It suddenly started to become gloomy and a heavy rain started to pour. I could feel the shift of the air that it was drizzling at first until the rain was pouring down so hard. It felt a little weird because one moment everything was looking so perfect and it suddenly became gloomy, like a whole different day.
I stayed inside our house and decided to chill in my room. There's something about the sound of the rain that makes me feel comforted. It sounds so relaxing for me. But just as I was about to go to the bed and lay as I listen to the sound of rain it suddenly stopped. Everything went quiet and as I looked outside the only thing I saw was the beautiful sky painted with pink and orange colors as the sun set to rest. It was so peaceful, like the rain never happened.
This reminded of how the cycle of life is to the most of us. One moment we feel like we're lucky to wake up in a day where we thought it would blast, the second thing we knew is it wouldn't go out the same as what we expected. It could go wrong without us having to realize.
But the thing is, storms don’t last forever. At the moment it feels like they will, but eventually they pass. After that, something better usually shows up. The sunset after the rain was a reminder of that.
Sometimes life gives us challenges, but once they’re over, we get to see something more beautiful than we thought we would.
What we just needed is patience. Some of us keeps on wanting to end the storm right away. What we didn't know is that, rushing things to be over right away will lead us to miss the chance of appreciating what comes after. The hard moments are what make the good ones stand out even more.
I realize this in my everyday life too. There are days when everything feels light and easy, which I tend to consider the sunny days. Then there comes the days when eveything feels so heavy and empty, that, I considered the rainy days. Both are part of life, and appreciating both things, somewhat makes it important.
Even when we look to the outside of the box, it's all the same. People go through endless struggles that feels like storms. Losing someone, maybe they fail at something, or maybe even just feeling lost sometimes. In those moment, looking at the brighter side of the box really is the hardest thing to do. We somehow become blinded by our current emotions. But little by little, things get better. Healing comes slowly, and before they realize it, there’s hope again.
The sunset after the rain feels like the nature’s way of teaching us not to lose hope. It stand as a reminder that gloomy days doesn't stay forever. No matter how dark it gets, light will eventually show up again. And sometimes it comes back even more beautiful than what you expected.
Now every time the weather changes, I can’t help but think about life. A sunny morning reminds me of blessings. A sudden rain reminds me of challenges. And a sunset after the rain reminds me of hope, and the good things that come after the hard parts. And I think that's what makes me always look for the brighter side even when things became hard.
Because, at the end of the day, life is never going to be perfect. Some days will feel easy, and other days will be rough. But the important part is to keep going, to remember that storms pass, and to look forward to the beauty that comes after. The cycle will always continue, and as long as we trust it, we’ll always find another sunset waiting for us.
