Blue Skies
I came to a realization tonight.
There will always be blue skies.
No I'm not talking about it in the sense that when you walk outside the sky will always be some form of blue.
I am talking about it in the sense of blue skies in the emotional sense. The kind of blues skies that people often associate with being sad or depressed. Those kinds of blue skies.
But the realization I came to tonight makes it seem a little bit better.
Yes it is true that no matter where you go or what you do in life there will be blue skies, but the shade of blue is always changing. Think about it! You can have dark blue which is almost black. Or blue that is so light that it kind of hurts your eyes to look at because it is so bright. There are SO many different shades of blue! It's the same with life.
Let's face it, you are probably not where you thought you would end up by this part of your life. That's just how it goes. Life most likely did not turn out as you planned. In fact I willing to bet that not everything in your life has turned out exactly how you wanted it to. Whether you are finding yourself sitting where you don't want to be and the "sky" seems to be the darkest blue/black that you have ever experience in your life, or you are so happy with where you are that you wonder how life can get any better and your "sky" is that bright bright blue, you didn't know this is exactly where you would end up and things that happened to get you here would occur.
Life is changing though. Those times when the sky seems the darkest blue/black that we have ever seen will eventually lighten up to a navy, then royal blue, then almost a violet, then all of the wonderful colors of a sunset will appear and you will get those golds, pinks, purples, and blues in there. Then at some point in time you will come to that bright bright blue and you will look back and think how the heck did I make it here? But it goes the other way too. You can be at the bright bright blue and then one day you realize that your sky is slowly getting darker and darker. That's just the way life works. You are never going to have only bright bright blue days, or dark blue/black days. You will have both and all the other colored skies in between as well.
So, there will always be blue skies.
The key though is to realize in those dark times that they will eventually become light. And when you are in those light times, to not forget about those dark times, because those are the times that you build up from, that you learn from, that you grow from, and that you never to want to go back too.
There will always be blue skies.
