Turn Your Wounds Into Strength
Sometimes, the strength of the storms that we endure tear us apart. It can rock us to our core. We feel fragile against the winds that wish to tear us down. There are times that will falter and fall. There will be other times when we find shelter and wait for the storm to calm. Yet, the silence is what we seek. Silence from the destruction of the storm. Where the only thing we hear is our own breathing. Where we find our solitude and wait for peace to find us again.
In life, we will lose people that we love. We will lose people without them knowing we would conquer the world for them. We will fight people’s demons that they can not defeat on their own. We will bring the entire universe down from the heavens just to light someone’s darkness. We will lose battles that we thought we would win and win battles we thought we would lose. Sometimes, the world sheds her own darkness upon us, but you will not give up. The fight is not over yet.
There will be days that are so dark that you can’t see. There will be days that overwhelm you to the point that you can’t function. Day’s you feel like you are already buried six feet under. Like you are unloved. Unappreciated. Raw. As unpredictable life is, the one thing we know for sure is that the sun will rise again. You are still a work in progress. Give yourself the opportunity to feel. To scream. To cry. To validate yourself.
