Love, The Best Refuge For Bad Times
Love shelters me in bad times. Every time I have had to overcome a situation that has put my own emotional and sentimental stability at risk, I have sought refuge in this universal concept in which I found so many good ideas to mitigate my pain.
Because it is true that love shelters me, but what exactly is love. Is it a man-made concept? Is a feeling? Is it an emotion? Does it have as many meanings as the number of societies that have interpreted it throughout history?
The truth is that I am not able to define love in its entirety, but I do know that it is something that helps me when I need it most and accompanies me whenever the paths I walk are not as flat as perhaps they should be.
Love shelters me when I need it most
Beyond extensive philosophical situations, I would like to focus my next words on the shelter that love offers whenever you are going through a bad time. In extreme situations where you feel that your soul seems to split in two.
Have you ever felt a sentimental breakup that makes you suffer so much that it seems capable of tearing your soul apart? When a relationship ends there is always a very deep pain that is difficult to heal, no matter how strong your mind is.
At that time, love will be a great help to overcome a particularly painful situation. Shelter under the affectionate mantle of a loved relative such as a mother, a father, a brother and even a son if necessary. Or maybe that good friend who is always by your side, despite whoever weighs and whatever happens.
Love shelters me after loss
Another exceptional moment in which love shelters me happens after the loss. Whenever a loved one leaves our lives, beyond mere death, the people who love us will be a good balm to heal our sorrows.
Don’t just think about that day of a loved one leaving this world. It may be a family member who goes on an indefinite trip, leaves his hometown for work needs, or moves away because the situation has become untenable. Be that as it may, the feeling of loss is enormous and causes deep pain in the soul.
Love shelters me in my lowest moments
There are many dire situations that lead us to need love to find the shelter that we alone are not able to locate without help. Moments in which an outstretched hand of someone dear is essential to shed some light on our dark and aching soul.
The moments of crisis caused by the loss of a job can become really frustrating and painful for individuals and families who see the main source of income that allows them to make ends meet abruptly.
The breakdown of a friendship can also cause our mind, soul and heart to fall into a deep state of lethargy from which we cannot get out if it is not with the help of those loved ones who are constantly willing to reach out to help. They are the ones who give you the glue to stick the pieces, who give you back your confidence.
There are many bad moments in which we can fall almost unintentionally, without anything to warn us: the lack of acceptance in a social group, the inability to adapt to a job or work team, the inability to make dreams come true because of rather than trying with the enormous frustration that this causes, the need to communicate properly and not achieve it …
Thus, there are many bad moments in which we can fall, many corners that bend in which life leaves unpleasant surprises. However, remember that love shelters you if you have close to those loved ones always attentive to your needs to get up and offer a shoulder on which to rest your tired bones.
Love shelters me in bad times. The roads I travel are not always easy. But the understanding and affection of those who love me allow me to look to the future with optimism, while I walk through my present fully, learning from the past.
