And yet — here you are. 🤍

“I am sorry that the world wasn’t always kind to your heart. I am sorry that you placed your tenderness into the hands of those who could not hold it, that you gave so much of yourself to people who made you feel like you were difficult to love, that you gave so much of your hope to human beings who made you feel like you had to apologize for the way you cared. I am sorry that you experienced certain things at the hands of love that caused you to stop believing in its kindness. I am sorry that you loved human beings who did not love themselves and that you loved human beings who did not leave softly. I am sorry that love wasn’t always your safe place, I am sorry that love wasn’t always compassionate, wasn’t always light.

I am sorry that the world sometimes failed to protect your soul. That the Universe sent you certain human beings who were hurt, and in turn, they hurt you. I am sorry that you had to carry all of that weight inside of yourself. I am sorry for the things you had to endure, for the ways in which the world cracked loss into your life, for the ways in which it met you with things you were not prepared for, circumstances your hope could not weather. I am sorry that you had to heal a heart you did not break. I am sorry that you had to do it alone.

I am sorry that the world wasn’t always kind to you. I am sorry. But I am proud of you for being here. I am proud of you for trying to heal in the flood of all that felt unfair and cruel. I am proud of you for continuing to stay soft in a world that sometimes favors distance over depth, that sometimes fails to connect. I am proud of you for the person you were, for the person you became, for the way you dug yourself out of the dark, for the way you pushed through the hurt. I am proud of you for your hope. I am proud of you for your belief in the goodness, for the way you focused on it when so many aspects of your life tried to convince you that it did not exist. I am proud of you for choosing to heal. I am proud of you. You deserved a kinder goodbye. You did not deserve what happened to you. And yet — here you are. Here you are.” 🤍

Battling and Beating Depression 🧠

Remember – even the strongest souls get exhausted. The strongest human beings, the ones who laugh the loudest and hope the hardest. The ones who are always there for others, those souls often need people there for them. So, please check on your kind friends. Check on the people in our life who are tender, the ones who are always open to give so much of who they are for those who need it. Check on the people in your life who love with every ounce of their being, who feel deeply and care deeply, and try to fix and mend and make sure that those around them are okay. Please, just check on the people in your life who are brave and who are soft for this world. Check on the people in your life who protect others at all costs because those souls need protecting, too. Those souls need to be reminded that they deserve the love they keep giving to everyone else.
