At years midpoint I'm spiritually and emotionally happier than I've ever been... Ive managed to accomplish things I never would have thought... Many ask how did I mend a broken heart... How did I gain mental and spiritual freedom. What books I read. What meditations I've done... My answer is time and patience. Acknowledging that I was broken, seeing how it was affecting me my life personality and those around me. I wanted to be healed I wanted to be the person I used to be if not better. Then after that time and patience which go hand in hand... I knew I would not be healed in a week a month or even a year... I forced myself to move on because if I didn't I'd be in the dark space of pain for a long time... Maybe eventually loosing who I was permanently... I went out. I lived. I cried. I painted. I talked... I creeped. I met other people. Even if I weren't truly happy inside I gave myself time to be. Sat in nature Sat in my room wrote painted... What I'm saying is I was being productive. I refused to sit in my paint and pitty. I am not the first person to get their hearts ripped out nor would I be the last. Heart ache is like a birthday. We all have one but yours is yours and really no one else has to care... It All starts with you. I changed my diet so I would feel better physically too. Pain doesn't melt away on its own. It's just like any other cut. Leave or open and it may get infected. It will fester with bacteria scab...the scab may rip off and you have to start all over again... But trust if you stop picking at it it will heal... It'll leave a scar but the scar is your lesson and battle wound all in one... You will see love again. You will see hope. But know it starts with you wanting to move on and knowing your worth. 🩱 @shoplovevera #jasminenichole #love #healing #art #tarot #crystals #crystalhealing #selflove #selfreflection #selfrespect #selfworth #selfowned #selfmade #vibrations #vulnerability #energy #foodforthought #HonestyHour #supportblackbusiness #supportsmallbusiness
