Retrospective Clarity

by Lisa

Its funny tonight I was viewing what triggers this insecurity. An insecurity, that surfaces from chapters closed. Persistently it flutters through, a reason to stay balanced I suppose. A humbling of the journey walked.

So easily this evening, I entered abandonment in search engine which led me here. So easily. Reading the first page struck me to the core.
After many appointments with therapist or psychologists, anyways, I reached out knowing of stages that I felt during my personal change outlined here. Self reflection, choosing how I wanted my future, to be what I wanted with no need of approval from anyone.

I was sad not one of the professionals outlined this. I could not articulate what I could not translate at time. Realizing tonight, healing is ongoing. It requires more strength than anything in my life. I'm hopeful for ones still taking the healing road, and thankful to meet the ones that crossed the bridge over.

The hard work is worth the pain, the other end is living in the present. Thank you for this reference, very helpful.
