THE DOT.....

Ever seen a web?

One thread, intertwined with another.....

Life is just like that-

A big, messy, meshy, entangled web where you lose track of which thread connects to what.

One leads to another.

One incident, one memory...

Good or Bad. Fortunate or Unfortunate.

But no matter how chaotic or twisted it gets...

THERE IS A FOCAL POINT.

The dot from where it all began.

Figure that out and it'll all make sense!

Not able to build boundaries?

Prone to justifying everone?

Giving unreasonable chances?

Struggling with emotional attachments?

Not standing for yourself?

Being harsh to yourself?

You know what to do....

Find THE POINT...

THE DOT...

THE MOMENT...

And then?

LET GO! FORGIVE!

Forgive others and Forgive yourself!!

Easier said than done?

Yes.

But TRY.

For those healing through the maze,

This is GraceInRuins - A.K.A.

Quiet before the Storm?? no... Quiet before the BLOOM!!

There are times where we are caught up in loops....

A loop of feeling lost, numb & overwhelmed....

A loop of choosing others over ourselves.....

A loop of questioning our worth....

But, Isn't that what we call just a wrinkle in the cloth?

This, is just a moment!

Just a phase!

A butterfly in a cocoon doesn't flutter it's wings on Day 1.

The shift from cocoon to sky takes space & time.

Before the wings are spread, a sense of stillness is needed...

Confidence is built, attempts made, failures experienced...

A sunflower doesn't bloom the day it's planted.

It doesn't open itself to the world on Day 1.

It grounds itself...

Lets the sun in...

Lets people notice...

It lets nature...nurture......

So, maybe the first step isn't a leap...

Maybe the first step is simply breathing!

And then?

Allow!!

Allow yourself, to nurture yourself.

Allow yourself, the time and space to breathe...

You NEED it.

You DESERVE it.

Only then will your heart, mind, body and soul - allow you to BLOOM.

TOUCHED BY THE UNHEALED!!

Sometimes, people are so full of the tendency to make everything about themselves.

It might be rooted in their past—unhealed, unacknowledged traumas…

that end up becoming the root of someone else’s pain.

Sometimes, we just need a person who lends an ear-

without picking on words.

Without making it about themselves.

We all carry stories.

But sometimes... just listen to mine.

For those soft with scars and loud with silence,
