I am not my Pain and Neither are You
My whole perspective has been what I was losing, what I left behind. But I’ve gained so much, I’ve built a life for myself that I promised I would. I achieved a goal I was so afraid to face. I’m doing exactly what I promised myself I’d do for years. And none of that means I don’t get to miss my old life or hurt when those memories crash in, but it’s time to let the pain go from overwhelming the beauty of everything else.

You Don’t Owe Anyone Your Peace
We all come to crosswords in our lives. Choose the harder path, the one that will challenge you, grow you. The one that you know will change you forever. That’s the path that’s worth it. The one that your younger self expects you to take, and your older self will be glad you had the bravery to follow. Start now, with trembling hands, a broken heart, a shaky voice, start with what you have, but start.
