#things are hard

[the-ivy-grows-regardless]

The days are getting cold and short

The rain falls and clouds block the sun

The Ivy grows regardless

The ground is harsh and rough

Something digs at her roots

The Ivy grows regardless

The pole she wrapped up and around fell

The people don't see her on the ground

The Ivy grows regardless

I, Ivy will continue to grow. Regardless of the roads, weather, days, people, and events around me.

I can withstand what I am within now, and so can you.

Live.

Every day is hard, and the year for some, maybe for you, has not started promising. For some of you, the world gets worse every second, you feel that there is nothing but negativity.

Live. No matter the hardships, even if the world seems to turn against you, continue to live, out of nothing but pure spite if need be. Just. Live.

Live to see the future, when things will turn around. Live for the small victories that scatter your surroundings, your days. Live so the persecutors cannot win. Live to show you are a person.

Whatever your reason, just

Live.

What I think is gonna happen if I don't overexplain myself when I ask if I can do something

moving from external stability to mental clarity and truth and toward inner closure and rebirth. the clarifying card for the world reversed was the high priestess reversed. and how very real is that.

i am trying to believe i can depend on myself. i have wisdom, strength, and so much love inside of me. it’s so hard to see, or even imagine, the fullness of what im stepping toward, but i know i’m moving toward alignment and peace. the inner me knows this. every other part of me is really afraid.

for now though, i just want to lay down and cry.
