Healing is NOT Linear

Healing is not linear.

At the beginning you won't recognize yourself. Some days you feel bipolar. Some days you feel defeated. Other days you are on top of the world. Other days you are numb, stuck, and bored.

Let it be. You are to be hit with a range of emotions and That's ok. It is your body processing your thoughts and emotions. Both past and present.

Embrace it. Your emotions are valid. It is an invitation to get to know yourself better.

But, remember, you are not your emotions. You are not your thoughts. You are not who you say you are. You are not who people say you are. You are ever growing. Ever changing.

Learn your triggers, listen to it, embrace the discomfort and then release it.

When you are ready take a positive action towards bettering yourself, supporting yourself, and uplifting yourself. It doesn't have to be major.

It may take hours.

It may take weeks.

It may take months.

It may even take years.

Just to find the strength to get up but keep pushing yourself.

Every small or big step you take towards caring and loving yourself matters.

Old layers will shed and you will realize the past no longer bothers you. You will realize you have grown and mature. Your inner child is free, playful, and enjoying life again. Life is more balanced. It will have become a dance at most.

Your mind becomes quieter. You enjoy peace and quiet. Certain things and people are out of your life for good. There is no attachment. No regrets. No void.

You are more mindful about who or what you allow into your life. You no longer feel guilty or ashamed of your boundaries.

Healing is not linear.

There is no deadline to anything. Your time is the right time.

Not the time you choose for yourself, right there and then. But, the time it takes for you to overcome and shine. Sometimes it's not the choice that matters but the process, the healing.

Nothing is set in stone. What is yours, nobody can take away.

Have faith. When you are ready it will be here. When you are a match it will be here.

When the time is right. When it gets here, you will recognize that now is a way better time than before. The waiting, the processing, the journey is all worth it.

Healing is not linear.

Nothing is permanent. You have your own tower moment. Hermit days. And, shining era. It all will pass.

What you have learned. That wisdom will carry you far enough to overcome your next hurdles. And, that too shall pass.

There is no end. Healing is a cycle of endless growth, learning, and shedding of knowledge and perspectives. It is overcoming. Outgrowing.

Healing is an awakening after another. Another reality after the next. A new life after leaving the familiarity. Something found in the unknown. Within the discomfort and the doubts.

Your healing isn't linear but it proved just how capable you are. You are the impossible made possible. It is within those moments of almost giving up that you become every unstoppable version of yourself. The dream person you have been asking for. The one who exemplifies strength, resilience, love, patience and all that you have been praying for.

Be it the manifestor, the creator, the dreamer. You reveal yourself without knowing. Things unfold at the least unexpected time, your time. Usually, right after you had wanted to give up.

Healing is not linear and you, too, are meant to be unstoppable as you learn to dance through life playfully and creatively.
