The Blessings of Change
Permalink  

After having loved someone who wasn't capable of loving back and going through the painful period of letting go,I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel.The things I was afraid of were only fears I created in my own mind.This new life is exciting and challenging.I was afraid of being alone and now I am developing great friendships.I no longer sit in isolation,feeling apart from the world.I was afraid of the pain but it has only given me strength.I was afraid of the financial struggle,but it has only made me feel even more capable.I am dreaming a million dreams of things I can do,things that that I never dared before. And The things  that I feared the most,the opposite has happened.I am truly blessed.

This is the hope that I keep for myself and its so wonderful to hear this. Congratulations! I like to think of the success I know I'll be able to achieve when I can shed all the baggage and be free to be. Trying to feel it happening incrementally instead of waiting for one big payoff. Thanks for the post!
