Instead of focusing on how far you still have to go, take some time today to remind yourself of how far you’ve already come. Yes, you may be still struggling. And yes, you may have some distance to cover, But those things don’t discount the progress you’ve already made. Healing takes time. It’s not a process that can be rushed. Beating yourself up for not being further along doesn’t improve your situation. It makes you feel awful and it keeps you stuck. Your journey may be slow, but it’s not without promise. Despite how difficult a process it may be. Despite how hopeless you may feel. Despite all of the people who tell you that you will never make it. . . Never give up! Never stop fighting and pushing forward. So give yourself some credit for that. It isn’t easy. But youre doing it, and you deserve to be proud of yourself. Let go of this idea that you should be further ahead, and trust that it’s okay to be where you are. Trust that you won’t be here forever. Trust that you will get to where you need to be. You’re doing the best you can each day to fight the darkness you feel, and that’s all you can ask of yourself. It IS enough! :) Love you ALL! (Y)
