Growth in ourselves
Be grateful for your growth

Gratitude Does Wonders
Sometimes we have to realize that we are never alone. Someone is always with us in those times when we need them. Even when we lose people they stay with us in times when we miss them. The lives we live matter because we are so blessed to live them. We are needing to be grateful for being where we are right now.
A year from now we won’t recognize ourselves because we have grown. Growing means having growing pains, and living through them means we will be okay. Growth means we won’t always be the same person, and that is okay. We transform into the version of ourselves that is best in those moments of time. Be excited to see all growth in yourself, it means you are living. Life is a gift in its own right.
Be the best Version of you.
Over time we become new people and each version is an upgrade for us. I think my growth started when I realized I deserved more and better. When I set boundaries for myself with other people. When I set boundaries with myself. The boundaries we put up gives us an idea of what we are worth to ourselves. Seeing that we are powerful and strong. It’s also the way in which we talk to ourselves. Talk to yourself in a way that isn’t harmful to you. Talk to yourself like you would want someone to talk to you.
It is all about giving yourself all that you deserve. Not allowing yourself to doubt your ability to be happy on your own. In the end we are the ones who make ourselves happy. I know it sounds hard to do, but really it's taking care of yourself enough so you do grow and transform into the best verison of you.
You are the one who is in control of the outcome of your life. You are the one who chooses your value and your worth. You cannot put that into someone elses hands because most people don't even know how much they are worth or their own value. Give yourself time to learn more about you, and how great you are as a person. Humans in general are interesting creatures, and we have endured so much. If we can get through living, then we are strong enough to learn who we are and grow with that version of ourselves.
Healing with emotion
A big part of growing is allowing your emotions to move freely through you and letting them go. I am not a person who likes to cry in front of people. I used to think crying was a weakness, but I learned that it is not a weakness but a strength. If I didn't cry then I wouldn't heal myself. Healing is how we embrace who we are and learn how to express our emotions in a healthy way. When we don't release our emotions they get trapped in the body as an illness. I found that when I pushed down what I felt it was painful and hard. I had hip pain because that is where my body chose to trap my unhealed emotions in the body.
Releasing your emotions just makes you feel lighter and less weighed down. It allows you to move on and forward in life. To use your emotions in a healthy way so you don't allow them to control you. Most of this is a learning curve and everyone learns in a different way and at a different pace. Don't beat yourself up if you can't express emotion like other people it takes time to master that and allow yourself to let it go. We are made to be stronger, and it is a matter of you being patient with yourself on this journey. Like they say nothing happens overnight and it will take you some time but that just means you will be able to appreciate the journey that you are on in the long run. When you get there you will feel so proud of the person you have become. I know I'm proud of myself and you should be too.
