Are You OK?
Do you get this question ok? Or usually they will ask ‘What’s wrong?’ right?
Being the usual us, we doesn’t feel right if we aren’t ok. Usually we will reply ‘Good’ or ‘Ok’. Else, we might even say ‘Nothing’. Typically we will just take it as it is as it is often easier than digging for the truth. Sometimes, it even takes a lot of effort to pry their mouth to tell what’s inside their mind.
People smile when they want to cry. Often to hide themselves behind the wall. Their mask. They laugh when they actually want to scream and shout. We pretend like nothing is wrong just because we don’t want to face the truth. Moreover, we don’t want others to know what’s deep inside us. A shell of protecting ourselves.
When things go bad. I often try to tell myself that it’s okay. Shit happens. We are not in control of everything. Yes, we can plan but let the Lord take the stewardship and sail our course. Things are not always rainbows and butterflies, sometimes you gotta scream and cry your anger and sadness to the world, because you can only hold it in for so long before something in you snaps.
We can’t control what is happening around us most of the time. However we can often control how we react to things. I told Snoopy that I only know that I need to do what I am suppose to do. I can’t control what you will do nor I want to do take control of your every single action and reaction. Everything begin with self.
When things happens, don’t put up the fake smiles, it’s ok to not be alright.
