My bestie sent me this today. I genuinely think that this is the most accurate representation of life that I have ever seen. No matter what happens in life, there are good, calm periods, but then, suddenly everything is a mess and it seems hard to believe that it can ever get straightened out. But it will. The scribbly knot in the middle might be bigger some days than others, but eventually, we always find our ways out, and head along towards the next scribbly knot. For some of us, seeing the end to the scribbly knot is a little harder, and we start to feel dragged down by the tangles, sometimes giving up hope all together. If we aren’t careful, the tangles can pull us so far down that we can never get back up on our own.
If you are like me, and have a brain that does not always know how to keep up hope or the tenacity to get through the scribbly knot; if you are as lucky as I am to have friends and family who will grab my hand and gently pull me in the direction of the good, calm point, don’t let go. No matter how hard it is, hold on to whatever life lines that you have. I promise, the knot you are in right now WILL untangle, and then, when you get to the next one, you will have a support system and a bit more confidence in your resiliency. It’s ok to be scared. It’s ok to panic. It’s ok to be overwhelmed. Just think of this image and remember that there is a good, calm point on the other side of that scribbly knot waiting for you.
