Thoughts: encouragement

No week at a glance this week. I've been taking some time to regulate my nervous system but I just wanted to share some encouragement.

Sometimes you may feel discouraged because things may not be moving the way you feel like they should be, or because you don't feel like you are where you want to be. Nor do you have the energy to do the things you feel like you should be doing.

I just want to give you permission to be tired. It's okay. It's okay to be drained, hopeless and to not have the energy to pick up a spoon yet alone run your whole life for that day. But remember this, you finally created a life where you can safely wallow in your sorrow because when you were going through it you probably had to "brave face it" to freedom. You couldn't allow yourself to completely fall apart because you may not have pulled yourself back together again.

It's okay to think about the pain that you've gone through. Some days you may feel weak and depleted. It's okay. When you were going through it you HAD to be strong, there was no room to feel pain, you had to survive. So when your body feels tired, when your mind wanders to the pain you've endured, remember, it's because YOU finally found the freedom to feel. You made it, even if it doesn't feel like it❣️

I love you❣️
