"Be gentle with yourself, you're doing the best you can."
I can’t talk to my family, because I don’t think I can make it through a phone conversation without crying.
I have shut out some of my best friends and sorority sisters because I am embarrassed by everything that happened.
I have lost sight of my dreams when it comes to my job, and my co-workers keep asking me why am I keeping to myself!
Most importantly when did I become someone who has a hard time believing in faith and hope?
Here it is:
I am struggling every single day, and I am having a hard time, but I am also shutting out the people who I love and care for so much.
I am letting those family phone calls go to voicemail. I am hiding behind social media photos, and I am so scared about not making it in the work force. I have let every little thing get to me (like not having enough paper clips), but most importantly where did this faith and hope go that I had two years ago (that someone once showed me).
Well here it is, I don’t know? I guess along the way of being hurt, I let everyone who was worried about me just assume I was okay or they would talk to my parents and my parents would answer the question for me right?
Today is the day I make the promise--when the phone number pops up on to my phone, I won’t send you to voice mail, I can’t promise I won’t make it through a conversation without crying, but I want you to know I am thankful that you believe in me, when I don’t always believe in myself.
Today I will text my friends and sorority sisters back. It’s more than learning how I am doing though a blog, or the smile I am putting on and telling you I am doing great and that my life has never been better. I promise I will answer with more than just a smiley face icon or “work is so busy” let me text you back later. But most importantly thank you for showing me that I have you guys for more than just my college career, and to be by my side for the good and the bad.
Today, I will stop getting angry at something as silly as paper clips, or the unimportant little things that are part of my work life. I had set career goals for myself when I graduated from college, and I don’t know how I lost sight of them along the way. Thank you to anyone who has even me the chance to start achieving those goals.
Lastly, here is my way of showing I have that little bit of faith and hope I have been holding on to. Thank you friends and family for showing me how important these things are in my life. I don’t think I could make it through all of this without those two very important things.
Most importantly, thank you all for showing me I have such an incredible support system, Thank you for teaching me these amazing lessons, and thank you for never stopping to believe in me! I am so forever grateful!
With so much love,
Molly Francis
