This year has been the hardest year of my life.
Separating from my wife has been heartbreaking, devastating and the most challenging ordeal I’ve ever had to experience.
However, through it all, I kept repeating the mantra, “be kind to yourself.”
You see, I am my own best friend. I always have been and always will.
You and I both have had so much sh*t happen to us. It’s truly a miracle that we are still here.
Life has many ups and downs.
The one truth is that you are always there. You’ve seen and experienced everything.
“No matter where you go there you are.”
Through the separation from my wife, I was visited by loneliness, silence, sadness and loss.
I had to be my own best friend.
I could have wallowed and cried in a fetal position for hours, days or months on end.
However, I truly know the preciousness of life and time.
I knew deep down life will go on, I will be well again and ultimately, nothing matters.
So with that awareness, I began to fix my sleep routine, my hygiene, get a super handsome haircut, eat the freshest, most nutritious foods, workout hard, dive back into my passions, work on my business, work on things I love and rekindle the most important relationship, which is with myself.
Look, I fully understand how difficult life can get.
In fact, life can become downright hopeless at times.
But, always remember, during your darkest hour, during your darkest moments, be your own best friend and be kind to yourself.
With love,
Sonam
