Healing
Poem below the image ✨✨✨✨
Healing isn't just speaking your heart,
Or trying something new.
Just shopping or a fun trip,
Filling time with things to do.
It's not just a skin routine,
A simple checklist or goals,
Nor reading self-help books,
Being perfect in all roles.
It's sitting with what's messy,
Letting yourself hurt and cry,
Being honest with yourself,
Even if it pains to know why.
It's allowing a soft pause,
When the heart feels overwhelmed,
Loving yourself with flaws,
Letting go who can't be held.
It's choosing your peace every time,
Even if it upsets all,
Rising after each defeat,
And learning from each fall.

Its sitting with what is messy... and learning to love your flaws. Stunning. ❤️
Priya, This feels deeply compassionate and emotionally grounded. I especially loved the reminder that healing is rarely polished or linear. Sometimes it is simply choosing softness toward yourself while moving through difficult truths.
Beautiful work. Monica
