Healing

Healing is a long and lonely process.

Every time I have to go through it, I end up appreciating life a little more. Even though I can feel the pain in every single cell of my body, I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. And believe me, it's a long tunnel. But as long as I can see some light, I know that everything will work out at the end.

Healing takes strength. We ignore our capabilities as humans until we have to go through times like these. In difficult periods of time we feel lonely, we don't know where to start and still, we manage to deal with the pain. We manage to get through it.

We get up in the morning. We make ourselves coffee. We take a shower and go to work. Some days even the simplest tasks seem unbearable. And yet, we make it.

My healing process goes like this. I read books. I am reading books about self development. I am trying to understand myself a little better every time and become the best version of me. I put so much time and effort in me that I fall in love with the process of healing. I am journaling and I am making plans for the future. Sometimes I move and change environment. My flight mode is usually on. And that keeps me safe. Oh, I forgot to mention the part about crying. Yes. Some days are harder than others. In order to bloom, you need to cry first. Let yourself feel your emotions. Let your tears water the flower you are.

When the healing process passes I feel reborn. I am a whole new person, stronger than ever and able to accept the next challenges that come up. Because guess what? Life is all about challenges. Life is a rollercoaster. 

Trust the process. 

Trust the path that lies ahead of you.

You'll be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
