Note: This short post is adopted from somewhere I can't recall, I put it a few years ago on my personal journal, I thought to share it, I hope it will be of some comfort to some people the way it was for me a few years back ❤️


-: Healing and acceptance :- 

Acknowledging where we are now - and accepting how we got here essentially opens the doors to healing. To heal, we have to acknowledge the wound. We can begin by acknowledging, or thinking about, all we have been through. Just sit with that for a moment. Accept that whatever you have been through, you did the best you could. One more time: You did the best you could. And acceptance doesn't  necessarily mean you approve of everything that happened, or how you reacted. Acceptance is simply stating, This is what happened. Once we can say This is where I have been, and this is where I am, only then can we move forward and create change.

So bright and inspiring, like you! 💛

True, acceptance is indeed the key, it's okay to take our time with it too, but knowing that denial and suppression wouldn't lead us anywhere is important, I feel. Thanks for the kind note! 🌻 Journal notes make for such great pieces to reflect on hehe, I do it sometimes also!
