The End of the World.

We all, at some stage of our lives, have that moment, that time where life seems to come crashing down on us emotionally and we think that we cannot live any longer, it all seems so hard to deal with and we want to end it all right here and now.

This explosion of wild emotions causes confused thoughts, a feeling of hopelessness, helplessness, of no return, of a life of suffering from now on. Because the emotions are cruising around in our heads with totally random illogical emotional hectic pace, we have trouble keeping up with what we are hearing and it all just seems just way too much.

This is, of course not the end of our world/life, it is just something has happened and we have lost control of our emotions so much so that we think that life could never get better again.

Many of us have broken up with a girlfriend or boyfriend and felt like life was now over because we just cannot live without that person in our life. This is the complete opposite to the truth but it feels that way, and our emotions running around unchecked tell us all sorts of doomsday stories and run little miserable videos in our minds.

Yet in ten years time, there we are, in our own home with our wife or husband, bouncing a cute little baby that looks like us on our knee laughing and making baby noises as happy as can be.

These End of the World moments in our life seem like they are the worst thing that could ever have happened to us, but I will tell you that in my own personal experience they saved me a lot of grief at times. For example, breaking up with a female and thinking that she was heaven on earth, pretty, adorable smile, and yet 10 years later we meet again and she turned out real bad, very undesirable and not a nice character.

These so-called End of the World times when we think its the worst thing that could ever have happened to us, they can really be a moment in time that was saving us from years of personal suffering and grief. Because we are emotionally involved we get upset and take it all wrong.

The last doctor I had, I don’t have one anymore, she told me that if she lost a leg that she would kill herself. Prior to this I was told that she was a very strong compassionate doctor. Imagine her consoling someone who had lost a limb in an accident. It is sad that she tells her patients what she will do if she gets hurt, or just can’t emotionally deal with what happened to her. I felt sad and sorry for her.

I found that in these really emotional times when all feels lost that all I had to do was to keep going, to get passed it, to move forward step by step and then one day I would be laughing again with people and wouldn’t remember the bad event for weeks on end, then years.

Its all about getting back up and getting on with life as best as you can because the best years are there to come. And please don’t cling to bad people or a rotten job because you assume that the worst is to come if you do. I know of many examples of people who finally walked away from what was holding them back and their life just went from good to better, to great. That stepping away is nothing to fear, it is stepping on the path of new and positive change, a better life, better job, better future, a wonderful marriage.

You have so much to look forward too, so much yet to enjoy, and so many good, wonderful caring people that you are yet to meet. Stay strong and believe that you are worth it, because you are, as it is with all of us, you are precious. Just keep going and you will see that I am right. And yes, life will never be perfect, but you will grow stronger and more capable with the rocky days and stand strong and happy on the good days.

The best is yet to come.

All the best from

James M Sandbrook.
