Healing is a difficult journey

It can be difficult since you can't lie to yourself. Even if you try it is pointless because no one knows you better than you.

It can be difficult since others around you aren't as interesting in healing like you are. Even if you guide them it is their choice to live how they wish.

It can be difficult since your perception of reality differs from others around you. Its worse when they won't even try to see from your side.

It can be difficult because you feel so alone in a world literally filled with people. Even when you say out loud you feel alone but for some reason, no one listens.

It can be difficult because you start to speak your truth and others don't like what you have to say. It's worse when they make you out to be a liar.

It can be difficult because you are forced to make new friends and that has always been difficult. It feels worse because you don't even know what a true friend is.

It can be difficult because you realize you are so small in this big world. Its worse when you feel like you need to change the world but are ant size.

It can be difficult when you realize how much evil is in the world. Even when you know there is good.

It can be difficult when you feel left in the dark. Even when you know you're bursting with light.

When you know .... you can't un-know.

and when you unpack all those difficult things you unlock the bright light that lies inside you.

From then on, even when you know you are in darkness, you know that your light can shine on, burning brighter than ever before.
