It starts out a day like any other.

Everything is on track until a bombshell turns your world upside down.
Everything is good and beautiful until the news poisons the mirage.
Everything is going welluntil all of a sudden, its not.

Standing tall felt like an insurmountable task.
I wanted the floor to absorb me.
I could feel the spaces between the warped wooden slats embossing themselves into my back.
They were sharp and soft at the same time.
I wished I knew how to be soft yet strong, too.
Observe, learn, grow.
You are the only one who can unbreak yourself.
It is out of the ashes that your strongest self emerges bright with resolve.
You were never weak.
To be raw is real.
To be open is to be courageous.
To be vulnerable is to be brave.
You turned out to be stronger than you ever could have imagined.
Your heart is a garden, and within it blooms strength.
