Turn Your Wounds Into Strength
You were born with a kind soul and a soft heart. Do not think of it as a weakness in this hard and cruel world. The world needs more people like you in it. People that care for others. People with compassion. People with empathy. You may not be able to heal every person that comes your way but they will be able to feel your caring nature. You shine the light for others when all they may see is darkness. Do not let society change who you are. You are one of kind in this world. Continue to share your kind soul and soft heart with everyone you meet in your journey.

You don’t have to know what is coming next. You are not a fortune teller. You don’t have to know what is coming every second of everyday of your life. Do not add the stress to your life, you have enough. You are forever growing and changing daily, so ride the wave. So please be patient with yourself and put the crystal ball down. Enjoy the journey of life and the unknowing.
When life knocks you down, get back up. It doesn’t matter how long it takes you. It’s time to be happy on purpose. Stop looking for dark clouds and start looking for the sunshine. Stop waiting for the next bad thing to happen in your life and instead wait for the next best thing to happen. Start choosing to forgive yourself and others instead of holding onto anger and darkness. Life is not meant to lived in despair and sorrow. Yes, we will go through both of those things in life but it does not mean we have choose to stay there. Life is meant for all the small and big moments of love shared with one another.
There are times in our life where we have to make the conscious decision to choose to fill your heart and mind with light instead of darkness. Choose to see the better parts of the world around you instead of the bad. Choose to see the good in your life instead of hardships. Choose to feel the love instead of the pain. Choose to start believing in your heart instead of your doubts. Little by little you will start to see how your life changes around you.
Always be proud of how far you have come in life. You have shown up every single day, even on the toughest days. You never never gave up even when you could have. Always be proud of your strength. Showing or feeling weakness does not mean you are failing, it means you are trying. You have searched for light through all the darkness you have seen, be proud of your journey. It may not be going as planned and that’s okay. Life is never an easy ride and it may not always be enjoyable. As long as you show up ready to give your best, that’s all that will ever matter.
