“That pain in your stomach, that pain in your heart, it goes away. That voice in your head that’s saying there's no way out, it's wrong. It gets better.”
This is something I wish everyone knew and believed it. Quotes like these have always been near and dear to my heart. They have always been my favorites, because it’s quotes like these that give encouragement and hope. This quote happens to be from one of my favorite shows, One Tree Hill. This show has aired for eight seasons and it is on its final two episodes. I started watching them in college and have faithfully seen every episode from every season.
I just want to say that this quote is so true. If there were something I could tell those near and dear to my heart that have taken their own lives, it would be this. I would tell them that I love them, that they matter, and that it gets better. This is what I often times had to tell myself when I was a teenager, and often times people told me this too when they saw me struggling. With losing a lot of people I had to be reminded of this everyday to deal with my confusion and pain. And I can tell you; it gets better!
Life gets progressively better. At least it has for me and it has for those who are the best people I know. It should never get progressively worse or something is not in check. And life getting better I have learned does not mean that you are making more money, or living somewhere nicer, or driving a fancier car. It means that you are happy and you like who you’ve become. It means at the end of the day your soul is at peace and your mind is not troubled. Life getting better means you are evolving and becoming a better person. It means that you are accomplishing being a better human being. This life is beautiful. Make the best of it. Be the best you!
