BREATHE: A Letter to Pressured Young Adult 🍂
slow down
take your time
it's okay to pause and do nothing but just breathe
remove the pressure, you are not in a competition.
They say your response to every situation matters the most. They are right. And if people around you make you feel like "doing nothing but to continue breathing" is not a good response at all, prove them wrong.
There's a time for moving
There's a time for stopping
But "always" is the time for breathing.
It's okay if you are still unsure of what path you'll going to take. It's okay to try anything and explore what you know you can do. It's okay to take a break for a while if it means recharging for you. It's okay if all you want to do for now is nothing but to breathe. Again, it's okay. Just continue breathing because, at the end of the day, your life is more important than your achievements. Your existence is more precious to your loved ones even if you don't see them that way.
There might be pressures and burdens that are on your shoulders and right at this moment, you can do nothing because of the circumstance that came even one problem before is not solved yet. A cycle of circumstances that feels like there's no hope to end it is indeed part of life. There's no way in escaping from it but the time will come when you will be able to see how much growth you've gained from all of it — and even here in uncertainty, know that you are already growing. I believe.
It's okay to feel the pressure but don't dwell too much on it. One step at a time. One skill to discover at a time. One potential to work out with. But more than anything else, I pray that you'll never stop breathing despite how tiring the world works. God didn't abandon you. If you feel like He's not doing anything for you, that feeling is wrong. Wherever you are right now is exactly where God is preparing you so that when the time comes, you are fully ready for what is meant for you.
You are not ahead of time.
You are not left behind nor late.
You are exactly where you need to be.
Your time will come, young adult. Claim it.
People and situations might be pressuring you now, but not the One who created you. Above all else, He wants you to enjoy what He gave to you this season. He wants you to enjoy your time with Him as you do nothing but breathing.
You are allowed to respond like this for a while then keep moving forward after.
