4.13.22 // Alone on the Journey

It's easy to feel alone on the journey of change.
.
You're not who you used to be and you're not sure who you are becoming. Sometimes it feels like you're lost somewhere in between.
.
The growing pains are mentally taxing and the mental strain can become physically exhausting.
.
Some days that growth feels all-encompassing like you're blazing a new trail but you keep stepping in thick mud, you keep getting caught in the thorny branches, and you keep feeling like "is this growth or is this failure?"
.
But, in that process of shedding the old you and the becoming the new, you are still there.
.
You have seen yourself through your hardest days.
.
You have been and will be endless versions of yourself
.
You are still you.
.
You will always be you.
