I know this world is a cold place a lot of the times.
But it can also be a beautiful place if you let it be.
Sadly today. A friend I work with got the call that nobody wants to get. His best friend has sadly taken his own life.
In this situation you can’t always think of the right words to help comfort, cause the brain switches off and emotions take over.
But if we can show that we’re there for them with actions, it makes things a little more bearable.
While human connection is hard to get nowadays, cause everyone’s living permanently online while projecting a perfect world.
We need to realise that behind every screen is an actual living person. That same person has good days, bad days and days that are so heavy that they often wonder it’s worth pushing on.
You might feel this too.
There’s no right or wrong way to approach being human, but what you need to know, that no matter how difficult things get, you matter.
You matter more than you know, even on your darkest days.
If you feel that someone might need a little help, reach out.
If you need a little help, reach out.
My inbox is always open if you need it.
This time of the year is tough but we’ll make it through it.
Look after yourself and don’t forget.
You matter.
Stephen Walker.
