Majicman Notes

The one thing suffering has taught me is that everything is fleeting. Pain is fleeting, feelings are fleeting, how you feel in this moment is going to change. So when I’ve been through heartbreak, when I’ve been through breakups, when I’ve been through job changes, I tell myself, ‘I’m really in it right now. I’m really in it. I’m having a really bad time. Life sucks.’ But then I tell myself, ‘Focus on what’s in front of you, and things will slowly start to change. It may not be immediate. It may be longer than you want it to be.’
