#stronger everyday

[bohemianaftersunset]

well holy shite, it’s actually been almost 4 years since the accident. Definitely took a fair bit of time to get back to feeling this agile and looking toned again, but I've been consistently running my morning mile every day for 2 years solid now (no expectations of doing marathons or even halfs any more, mind, but we did just sign up for another 5k), regularly back at the kickboxing, and finally back up to a solid 140 lbs.

I am healing,

not all at once,

not in a straight line,

but step by step,

breath by breath.

Some days, I wake up

with fire in my chest,

ready to fight for peace,

even if it means crying first.

Even if my hands shake

as I hold the light.

I’ve been through storms

that tried to break me.

I’ve seen nights

that swallowed the stars.

But I’m still here,

tired, maybe,

but standing.

I’m learning to love

the quiet progress,

the soft IM OKAY

after a heavy day,

the smile that slips in

without asking.

Healing isn’t perfect.

Some scars still talk,

some wounds still whisper.

But I’ve learned to listen,

not to fear them.

They are part of me,

not all of me.

To anyone who’s still fighting,

still rising, still trying,

you are not weak.

You are not behind.

You are becoming.

Let the sun kiss your skin.

Let the wind remind you

that you are still moving.

Still growing.

Still alive.

I am healing,

and that is enough

to keep going.
