I am very blessed.
I have swam through oceans of pain, trauma, heartbreak & what not.
I have been smacked by life at times, hurt by my dearest in ways that gave me wounds that seemed impossible to heal
I have faced the demons in myself & my loved ones
I have seen the worst of myself & them
I have been broken a zillion times & but always managed to piece myself together with love, faith & patience.
I have sewn a hundred wounds on my own in silence
I have nourished myself with tears & screams that needed to be let out.
I have loved myself & everyone else even at the most difficult times
It’s not been easy but it’s all been a part of this ride - everything in the end has been a blessing in disguise.

You might see me immersed in joy & think oh what is not there for her to be happy? She has got it all
Yes! I have had - all the goods & the bads.
It’s about what you focus on.
It’s about what you let the hurt do to you.
It’s about what you do with the things life throws at you 💛

~ I have got my share of baggage too 💜🌸
But I choose to be happy. I choose to forgive.
I choose to be grateful. I choose to be alive.
I choose to listen to the unspoken.
I choose to speak of what isn’t talked about often.
