Empty

This is something that I grabbed from Instagram,
I followed one of this page which is "powerofspeech",
and the stuffs they write there gives me daily doses of good vibes..
Everything written there just reflects to how I felt,
and eventually boost up myself and my day..
And therefore, I shall share one of my favourite post from its page!
Do follow powerofspeech in Instagram to get your daily doses of good advices ya!

Empty.
It's normal to go through moments where you feel like something is missing in your life or within you.
There's a feeling of emptiness, and you may not be able to express what it is. 
You may conclude that you will only find happiness when this void is filled.
When people experience this feeling, they may chase all sorts of external things to ease this discomfort.
They can feel a temporary sense of fullness but ultimately the emptiness linger or returns.
People can have so much in their life but still feel a sense of lacking. 
On the other hand, people may feel like they are missing a lot and that only when they attain what they want will they truly be happy.
A feeling of inner emptiness is a result of something much deeper than that.
It's a reflection of an inability to embrace to love that surrounds us - the love and light of our God.
The world was created with and is sustained with love. We wake up each day and are given a renewal of life with love.
When we lack of this awareness and are unable to tap into this love, we feel a deep cavity in our souls. That is the feeling of emptiness.
So how do we improve our ability to absorb the love that is everywhere?

By choosing to open ourselves to love.
We often close our hearts by trying to avoid our feelings altogether, mainly our pain.
It's okay to feel pain as long as we learn how to deal with it in a productive way.
Throwing away our pain will not fit the void but make it larger.
Your emotions are valid and should be experienced.
We have to learn to love ourselves a little more each day, have compassion for our weaknesses, and honor the positive steps we take to change.
Feeling empty is a reminder that we have neglected our truest selves.
When we truly love ourselves, we are able to grow more, give love to others, as well as receive love in return.
Perhaps human beings are somewhat like donuts. 
Perhaps there is often some sort of "hole", an ache of something is missing within us. But if we embrace the love around us and allow it to flow within us, we can fill that space more and more. #powerofspeech

And I shall end this post with a quote by Robert Frost, "The only way out is through."
