This was me last year
No teeth
My lips had finally healed
I was there but I wasn’t
When I look at this picture today
I wonder how I kept going
Where my strength came from
I see a sad sad girl here
Lost inside herself wondering when the darkness will finally lift
I see a hurt and pain and sadness inside her and I love her
I see bravery and perseverance and strength even in the midst of the madness
I love all of her
I love every single fucking situation because it’s molded my heart and my spirit
There will be times In your life when you want to quit
When you want to run away
When you don’t have the energy to go on
But……………..
Somehow
Someway
You muster up the courage to fight the battle another day
And you only focus on the present moment because if you look to far ahead you’ll never make it
I know the dark sucks because I’ve lived it
But guess what?!?!?
No dark?!?
No light
