Kind, gentle soul…you have carried the weight of the world long enough.
Most of this burden wasn’t even yours to carry.
What would it look like to let go, stop clutching it so tightly, and release a bit of it back to its rightful owners?
What would it look like to choose less suffering and less survival?
To live, truly live, and to choose you.
You have choice now little one.
Do you see that?
Could you, would you, love?
Do you have to know what that may look like? Could you just step out of your way?
Could you trust?
Could you quiet their voices?
You have been learning about letting go for quite awhile.
You are still learning about what you could and can’t control.
You are still learning about you, where they end and you begin. What’s you and what’s them.
Some things are bigger than us and some things are just other.
Is it time?
I think you are ready.
Can you see that light ahead now?
Not that dim glow behind you.
Breathe.
You will be okay.
We got you.
