Turn Your Wounds Into Strength
Life is about learning. Learning about happiness, sadness, grief, and everything in between. It is up to us to see the beauty within the journey. I lived through the cruelness and joy of life and what it brings into our lives. Sometimes, we can forget to see the beauty of life. Our hearts can hardend, and our outlook on life becomes cold. Try not to let this happen. Thaw the coldness of your heart. The darkness that we see is just the brief stillness before light arises again.
Hear me when I say you are amazing, wonderful , and so precious in this world. If no one has ever told you that before, I am truly sorry. Do not become cold with what people have said about you. Do not believe in their words. Choose to rise from the darkness around you, and let the feelings of love run through your veins. Let their words go quiet and instead set fire to the words of self-love. Let it run through you. Let it nourish every part of you. One day it will become a part of you.
Wouldn’t it be amazing if what we knew now, we knew when we were younger? Oh, how life would have been a little bit easier. Like how our faith can move mountains. Or even knowing that being loud and fighting doesn’t mean that it gave you strength. How healing takes time and work and not instantaneous because we want it. That love also means loving yourself through and through. That life will be hard, but the fight in you is unmeasurable. How would life have changed if we knew what we know now is incomprehensible. But would it have made you into the person you are now? Would it have given you the same strength that runs through your veins now? Would you be you?
Be kind to yourself. Be good to your heart. There will be moments where others are not kind to you, so do not add to it. When your soul vibrates to life, listen and be still. Lay down what is heavy, and leave it where it lays. Do not pick up what heavy to carry, leave your burdens where they lay.
