Title: I am feeling more resilient
Post by: Hope67 on August 05, 2019, 03:03:34 PM
I am avoiding something else that I wanted to write, and was staring at the various post headings, and I was drawn to this one - 'Building Resiliency' and I think this:
I am feeling stronger,
I am feeling bolder,
I am no longer afraid
(This is very upsetting to write, it's like it's overwhelming)

It's ok - be calm, breathe, you'll be ok.

It's ok to be stronger, it's ok to be bolder, it's ok to no longer feel afraid.

You'll be ok.  You are safe.  This is part of facing things - feeling ok with taking a few steps.  You can do this.

(I'm still upset, my head hurts)

I need to get these feeling out - it's ok to do that.  It's written and it's ok.

(Feeling calmer)

Hope  :)

Hello Hope,

This sounds so good, such progress! I don't want to overwhelm any parts of you with further words so sending  :hug: :hug: instead. Ignore if it's too much.

Dear Hope, Thank you so much for sharing. If it's ok, I would like to borrow your words and repeat them to myself today. And, if you would like, I'd like to send a  :hug: along as well.
