A Fork in the Road Can Be a Chance to Start Over
And this time, you can create something beautiful
Almost anything can make me cry these days.
Maybe that’s just what happens when you go through something that shakes you to your core and rearranges your whole world.
Maybe, throughout the healing process, you become more of who you already were.
The parts of you that already existed just become more free and feel safer to express themselves.
All I know is, I’m okay with it.
And that’s truly a liberating feeling.
I’ve had a rough couple of years, and I’m slowly starting to feel like myself again.
It’s been a while since I felt like I could breathe deeply, or since I was excited about something.
But that’s happening for me now. I’m finally getting to the stage where I know that I’m going to be okay.
And not just okay, but maybe even great!
I’m starting to believe that I might actually thrive because of what I’ve gone through.
And that’s something I never would have seen coming.
It’s amazing what a difference a year can make.
