Sometimes it seems like the sky is crumbling down on your head; the ground is opening up and you are being swallowed by the bottomless hole. You drop down, down, so far down. And when you think you cannot sink any deeper, sadly, you do.
Then, from very far away, you hear a voice whisper: Hang on! The best is yet to come! It is a
whisper because you are so deep in the pit that all the positive words seem to
reach your ears as a fine whisper; soft and almost inaudible. The faint voice,
which might belong to someone you know and love or a complete stranger, repeats
the expression so many times so as to make it sink in your heart; brand it on
your soul like a hot iron. However, first it goes into one year and out the
other. The words make no sense at all at first because how can you expect the
best when all you see is the worst.
All of
this changes when you are in the opposite situation; when you are at the top of
the hole and someone is down at the bottom. So deep down that you can barely
see them, and you scream from the top of your lungs: Hey, the best is yet to
come! Hang on! Don't give up! I can assure you the best is yet to come! You
have been in that sad situation before and you know that even though it seems
like it's a bottomless pit that you have fallen into, you will eventually be
able to climb out of it , one step at a time and enjoy what is on the outside.
So, if
by any chance one day you fall into that hole again, remember the best is yet
to come no matter how long it takes.
