She couldn’t believe her eyes. She thought she was dreaming. She came home from school that day to see what she could not have imagined in her wildest dreams. A part of her had been lost that moment forever. To her, there was to be no happy life afterwards. The sight of her mother in the pool of blood left her anguished for a long time. Things would never be the same.
She remembered the promises of forever but that had been broken. She couldn’t believe her life that had been so perfect could be shattered in a jiffy. Days passed and all she thought of were the memories, the things they planned would never be done. She was on her own, lost in a maze of despair.
The death of her mother brought the end and beginning of so many things. It was the end of her ineffable joy,endless laughter, real smiles, dance classes, clarinet classes, double dutch training. It was the end of all the good she had in her and of course, the beginning of darkness. She always lurked around dark corners where she’d harm herself and take drugs. Slowly, she became an addict. She changed her friends and hung around bad company all the time. She lost it; she lost her game, frame and name.
Years passed and Jessie did nothing about her situation. Most people ignored her actions with the belief that it’s just a teenage trend and she would get over it…sadly, it got over her. At 18, she was diagnosed with lung cancer. She let her loss affect her future and ended up ruining all the good things she could have done with herself.
The loss of a loved one has many impacts on the human mind. A good instance is Jessie’s life. She lost herself and gave in to drugs and bad relationships. Where did she end up? Now, I am pretty sure her mum wouldn’t have wanted that for her.
It really is an arduous situation to cope with but trust me when I say you’d pull through it if you make up your mind to. And yeah, you’ll need a bunch of trust worthy helping friends👫👬.
So many have been depressed for much less.
