Healing is possible. You are not doomed to be stuck in the same misery forever, and the things that are painful now, while they suck, will not always hurt as much. Healing is a slow process, and it's hard to see from the inside, but one day you will look around and realize how much more at peace you feel. There will never be a world where everything is perfect, there will always be little troubles, medium troubles, even big troubles. But you will get through them.

You gotta understand that some people never really grow. They never learn their lesson. They never recognise their mistakes, they never acknowledge their faults, they never admit they were in the wrong. You will never receive an apology from them, and you will never see their behaviour change.

Allow yourself to experience good things. Use the fancy plates, eat the nice chocolate you've been setting aside. Drink the expensive wine with friends while watching a silly movie. Stop putting off good things because some arbitrary event hasn't happened yet. Make experiences special. Have apleasant memories. Stop letting things waste away until you're filled with regret over what could have been.

Pay attention to what makes you feel on edge. If you’re feeling angry try to stop and assess what is triggering that anger. It doesn’t have to make sense. Is the sound of shoes squeaking on the floor grating? Is the way someone is asking you for something upsetting even if the ask isn’t? Understanding what is bothering us is the first step to diffusing our anger.

before you go to bed tonight I want you to remember that it took a lot of courage to leave behind what’s not for you anymore. If you’re strong enough to let go, then you’ll be strong enough to find what’s next for you. you’ve got this, good night.

Making mistakes does not make me bad.

Let’s stop beating ourselves up for the things we did in the past or how we were back then and instead we celebrate and give ourselves credit for knowing better now.
