You weren’t numb. You were surviving. And now that you’re safe, the sadness you once tucked away is returning — not to break you, but to be met 🌧️🫶

Your life reflects your inner state. Everything you do or have is simply the ripple effect. Anchor into who you are — and let the world follow.

Healing isn’t just about what we’ve shared or processed — it’s also about what still lingers quietly inside. You don’t have to be afraid of what remains. You’re still becoming.

You’re not broken for still feeling pain after your mind has made peace. The heart just needs time to arrive where the logic already lives. That’s not failure — that’s healing.

Healing starts with honesty — and sometimes, that means gently cleaning the wound before we dress it. A short reflection on tending to our pain with truth before we move into introspection.
