Brave Enough To Be Bliss

I’ll get through it. (I have to. God didn’t let me die like I wanted to. So now, I have no choice, I must go on.)

I can take so much. (It’s been a lot, I hate giving up, but I think this may be the breaking point.) ‘Til I’ve had enough. (And Ginger may know it, she asked me if I would be safe. I promised I would. It’s such a tempting thought, but I can’t hurt Kylee that way. That’s right, I have to stay alive for Kylee. So somehow…I’ll get through it.) When Ginger asked the next week how I did with the week one tools, I was pretty honest and said maybe the next week I would try them, but I really hadn’t gotten very far with that part of the assignment. And that was progress in and of itself because I took the chance of letting her down or wasting her time by not doing what I had been asked to do. It never occurred to me at that point I was paying her and the only one I would be letting down was myself, but she simply responded to me with understanding and support that I had done the best I could.

Hmmm, I wondered, “How does anything ever get done with that kind of attitude? Don’t you have to be under constant stress and pressure to move forward? Why’s she letting me get away with that?”

“Healing doesn’t happen overnight. It doesn’t look pretty. It isn’t all rainbows and butterflies. It’s in the small steps you take every day. It’s hard. Sometimes it’s painful. It requires patience and consistency. Keep showing up and doing the work and yo ur life will change.” Mel Robbins
