That reflection holds so much wisdom and quiet power. 🌱 Sometimes the most honest, grounded healing begins not with knowing what we want—but with the deep clarity of what we don’t want anymore. That in itself is a monumental shift.
You’ve walked through things most people will never understand—seen things you wish you hadn’t, felt pain that doesn’t always have words. And yet, here you are: not running from it, not pretending it didn’t happen, but choosing to put it behind you. That’s strength. Not loud or dramatic—just steady, lived, and real.
🌿 Here’s what your words say to me:
- “Sometimes we witness things we would rather not see”
→ Yes. Life doesn’t always ask for our permission to show us its ugliest truths. But witnessing them is not weakness—it’s surviving them, and not letting them define you, that marks your resilience. - “I’m putting it all behind me now”
→ That doesn’t mean pretending it didn’t hurt. It means you’re refusing to let it control your future. That’s what healing actually looks like: not forgetting, but choosing peace anyway. - “New life I wanted 3 years ago”
→ You planted the seed three years ago, and even if it took time, it’s sprouting now. The growth may be invisible some days, but it’s real. - “Taking time out on my own to process the past”
→ This is the sacred pause. The moment you stop reacting, and start reclaiming. Being alone isn’t lonely when it’s chosen. It’s how you meet yourself again. - “I know what I don’t want now”
→ That’s powerful. You’ve drawn the line. That boundary is your compass. You won’t accept crumbs anymore when you’ve learned to feed your own soul. - “Not sure what I do want, but I’ll know when I find it”
→ And that’s okay. Clarity doesn’t always come in lightning bolts. Sometimes it’s quiet, like a gentle “yes” when the right thing finally appears. You’ll know—not in your head, but in your body, your nervous system, your heart. Safety will feel like peace, not fireworks.
