Reality Check.
Sometimes, when you look around, you feel that things are going your way. There are hurdles but you are optimistic, or maybe, you're too optimistic. And then you start dreaming, over-stepping in your imagination, painting those bright blissful days in your head which dont seem too far, being anxious for every next day to come.
Then, someone drops the bomb, the bomb of 'Reality Check'. You immediately regret those over-steps, those plans and imaginations, those moments you have had wished for. Because now, you see the cracks in them, you know they might crumble, crumble upon you choking you
down. You are now left with a spreading hollowness in your heart, you struggle to be hopeful, to even look up.
But you know, reality checks are really important. You have to make sure to thank the people who dropped that bomb on you. If the thought of things not going your way can hurt so much, then what would have happened if it had hit you unexpectedly?
Not that you can always avoid the unfavourable circumstances, not that you can always do something about it, not that you can hold on to yourself when you are breaking apart, but at least now, you will have time to tie yourself around, put in that desperate attempt to just pull yourself together.
Cheers❤️
