Recovery

By: Aivan Ayen

The greatest source of happiness is the ability to be grateful at all times. – Zig Ziglar

Doubt is always present along the process of formulating a decision. We are always confronted by different problems that leads to confusion. Human has an ability to recognize the properties of good and bad, beneficial and unhelpful as well as right and wrong. But we are also bounded in certain considerations.

We prefer to choose a decision that won’t affect the situation of other people even if it has a negative effect to us, personally. Maybe it justifies the nature of human which is goodness, no matter how bad the situation is, we always choose to find a good thing within in.

This poem is an excerpt from my work entitled “Change and its Inevitability”

I want to give myself a break from dealing with continuous self-destruction and unexplained heavy emotions

I want to give myself a break from carrying painful words from other people and let it decide of what would my life should be

I want to give myself a break from declining the time of those people who genuinely care for me and constantly disburse my days searching for nothing

Today, I will allow myself to design my own recovery knowing that i still got a human heart inside me. I will find it so i can heal and bring back the person that i was before i became aware of this unfavorable world.

We are social species, we rely on communication to survive. But it doesn’t mean that we need to give everything that we have to others. There are days and circumstances that we need to acknowledge our own ability and capacity in life. Through this process, we will appreciate the importance of having a separate time in contemplating and evaluating things.

Allow yourself to be free and happy as it reflects the gratitude that you have inside your heart.

Be grateful, always.
