Growth isn't linear.

Growth isn't something you put in a box.

Growth takes time.

Time is subjective.

Time can be long.

Time can be short.

Time is part of healing.

Healing isn't supposed to be easy.

Healing is how you grow.

Healing is possible.

Healing is a part of life.

Life is like a rollercoaster, constantly going up and down.

Life is unpredictable.

Life never makes sense.

Life is full of wavy lines.

Life isn't linear.

You aren't linear
