Give it time

Before you start, play this song. http://youtu.be/Yvhg4enuElY


So. Imagine you've been in a dry well for the past few months.

The well is so deep and no one can hear your cries for help from down there.  But you still stayed in there, because that's what your heart told you to do.

You're getting thirsty, then you begin to feel weak. You come to a point where you are dying of thirst. But you still stayed in there, hoping for a miracle gush of water.

And yes, there were occasional drops of water but they were never really enough. But you still stayed in there, because those drops felt like magic.

Even though sometimes you feel like just climbing out, you still stayed in there, because that's where you've been all this while and you don't want things to change.

But suddenly, someone throws in a lasso and pulls you out of the well by the head. It felt like the lasso was strangling you and you were going to die. But somehow, you realised that although the air is fresher up here and you're going to find more water, you don't feel any happier up here. You were still really thirsty, and you started to think that maybe it's better if you stayed down there in the well.....at least there were still occasional drops of magic right?



The true reason why I chose to stay in the dry well for so long was because I loved it there. 

Although I wish I had stayed in there, I know it was a better choice to be up here on the ground. The oasis might be really far away and I probably won't find it for a long long time, but at least there's definitely going to be a lot more water up here.

It will all get better in time.
