Turn Your Wounds Into Strength
Since I was diagnosed with Gastroparesis last year, I’ve noticed I’ve changed along with my lifestyle. My strength to overcome my difficulties has fortified. I no longer worry about my appearance when it comes to societies standards. During this phase of my life I have learned to give myself grace and healing. I have mourned my health along with celebrated small wins. I know I still have broken pieces to put together, but for now I have rearranged my story.
It hasn’t been easy lately. To continue when you are tired. To continue when you start to lose hope. To admit to yourself that you truly are not in control. To loosen the reigns on life itself. To face your grief and sorrow. To heal from your trauma. To simply take one more step. Always remember that you are brave. That you show bravery everyday you fight through your battles. Beauty can still be found in the midst of it all.
