Maybe this was you all along.
It seems life right now isn’t about what you hoped it would be … or what you thought it should be.
It's about juggling heartbreak, slow mornings and vulnerability.
Riding waves of emotional highs and lows so fucking gracefully.
Sitting with it all and sometimes talking to him in the darkness.
Maybe this was you all along.
It could be that your life right now isn’t about climbing mountains or pushing a business.
Perhaps your focus is to finally let people in, be seen fully with all your messy morning hair and although you don't mean to, dazzling people with your light.
It could be about spontaneous outbursts of laughter and quiet moments of connection.
Under the weight of the unknown, building strength, the real kind.
Maybe this was you all along.
Your journey is about a million different things and also, about nothing at all.
This could be your most beautiful chapter and still, the most upsetting.
The power to be anything after all of this passes, is everything.
The world has left you with a path you never asked for and yet here you are, placing one foot in front of the other.
Maybe this was you all along.
Settling in the chaos of hospital visits and panicked eyes.
Loving fearlessly and making endless cups of tea with the little energy you have left.
Holding on tightly to your inner child, the one who never gives up hope.
Knowing all roads are leading back to the start.
Maybe this was you all along.
Breathing deeply into your heart.
Bravely facing the monsters you used to run away from and fighting new ones you never even dared to imagine could be real.
Experiencing moments of genuine awe at your own strength.
Knowing you are exactly where you need to be.
Maybe, just maybe
This was you all along.
