Gratitude

Surrounded by love,

I celebrate my healing.

Blessed and grateful.

A.G.

It’s been a very long healing journey and the last 3,5 years were more intense in this regard. I pulled myself back from many social interactions and engaged only in those that felt good and supportive. This time was about the relationship with myself. Most of my spare time was dedicated to journaling, drawing, developing new skills, exercising and, most importantly, engaging with my inner child. My work colleagues became my friends and a huge support system.

I had no idea where or when this part of the journey would end. I only had the boat and a strong compass telling me the direction was the right one. It was a lesson of resilience and trust that the shifts happening inside me will fall into place. All I needed was to take care of the boat until it hit the promised land.

Today I am grateful that I reached this land and thankful for the storms that brought me here. I’ll just stay a little longer at the shore to catch my breath. I’ve been sailing for a very long time and forgot how it feels to stand on land. Once my body settles in these new sensations, I’ll venture deeper into the mysteries of this new bright, colourful, lively, and yet peaceful land. I can already perceive its brimming potential from where I stand.
