The only message I am trying to convey to YOU

I am not saying what you went through was easy

I am not saying what you are going through is okay

I am not saying what happened in the past is easy to forget

I am not saying the trauma is not real, it is real.

I am not saying it did not hurt, it did and maybe in some way it always will be part of us.

I am saying:

It is okay to breathe.

It is okay to think for yourself.

It is okay to be vulnerable.

It is okay to change.

It is okay to ‘want’ something which is not ‘usual’ or how its ‘supposed to be’,

it is okay to live a life YOU want rather than what others expect of you.

it is okay to feel ‘free’

life is short

let go of what you cannot change,

embrace the present,

LIVE today- this is all that matters.

You absolutely CAN

change your mindset, change your life.
