“What seems to us as bitter trails are often blessings in disguise.” -Oscar Wilde
You want to know what my title for my blog was going to be before I changed it on the last possible second? You already know it I promise, just look above the quote posted above. It is the title of a song from one of my favorite bands “Paramore,” and to be honest that song is not one of my top ones from them, it’s just the title that trapped me in. This week has been a drag, and no it was not school related nor friends but it was because I just kept receiving news after news from home that just pummeled me down every second counted on my phone from the calls. At times this week I got to admit that it was hard even when I talked to my close friends at home about it but as much as I was down for some strange reason I couldn’t help but to keep reminding myself of what I’ve been through and experienced before. I don’t know why, but I kept doing it and to my surprise it was actually uplifting to think about my past and then knowing that I am still here. I feel like the quote that I picked described exactly what happened to me this week, the paths that I took that were my worst nightmares were the ones to actually throw a rope to the bottom of the barrel and lift me up. So my closest cousin is going to rehab and my parents are getting separated, it’s depressing but I have to be optimistic not only for my family but for my own sake. I’m sure I’ll look back one day and know that it made me stronger.
And again
What seems to us as bitter trails are often blessings in disguise.
