The best way is not to fight it, just go. Don’t be trying all the time to fix things. What you run from only stays with you longer. When you fight something, you only make it stronger.
Chuck Palahniuk, Invisible Monsters
Acceptance.
It’s not always easy.
Accepting the part of ourselves that want to be heard.
Be seen.
Be loved.
The past version of ourselves who made mistakes.
Out of fear.
For protection.
Today, I can choose differently.
Today, I can embrace thoughts and feelings that come up.
And place my power into the ones I would like to keep.
It might not be easy.
But I can practice.
One thought.
One feeling at a time.
I may fall,
But I shall try and try again.
