You don’t have to feel guilty for having a hard day. You don’t have to feel ashamed of the fact that your mind hurts and your body is tired.

I’m also here to tell you that despite how broken you feel and despite how hard it is to be in the world today, you are not going to feel this way forever.

You’re allowed to have hope about your future.

Life is messy.

I hope you trust the timing of your life, and that you follow your own path without worrying so much about what everyone else is doing or how fast they are moving.

Life can be so lonely…it can be so hard.

I hope you let love shower you and I hope you let people see your soft side.

I want to be happy on my own.

Healing is not linear. Healing is not easy.

Sometimes miracles take a little while to pan out.

But remember, not everything that you are thinking is reality. All of your darker thoughts are winning right now because half of you is too tired to reassure yourself.

The funny thing is, on the bad days, you can look in the mirror and see the same girl you see staring back at you on the good days.
