Be it having hid it all the way at the back of your closet or swept under the carpet literally or a blog post saved as draft or even deep down in your heart somewhere, you have been living in denial.
You would agree that the phrase 'out of sight out of mind' makes perfect sense.
Until, looking at it brought back a whirlpool of conflicting emotions you had tried so hard to forget.
You know what they say, 'Everything happens for a reason.'
When we hid that 'something', somewhere, we did it for a reason.
Maybe it was too painful. Maybe it wasn't the right time. Maybe you didn't know how to deal with it. Or maybe you just didn't want to deal with it.
And when that 'something' appears out of nowhere or in my case, chancing upon it, happens for a reason too.
Maybe you're still stuck in the same situation. You might cry. Maybe you've grown out of it, moved on. You might smile. Maybe you still remember the good and the bad times. You might feel the bittersweet pangs like it all just happened yesterday. Or maybe you even forgot what you were running away from in the first place. You might be able to face it, fight it, and deal with it.
What I am trying to say is that, everything happens for a reason and I know what mine is. Do you?
For me, mine is a wake up call. A harsh slap of reality right across (or rather in) my face. I am not ready, but I would be in time to come. In the meantime, I am preparing myself for the biggest leap of faith just yet.
