✨ Post Three — “The Reclaiming”

You once believed healing meant forgiveness —

but now, you understand it’s about reclaiming what was yours

before anyone taught you to be small.

It isn’t about being soft all the time,

or graceful when you’re breaking.

It’s about choosing yourself

in every breath,

in every no,

in every moment you decide

not to shrink back into the person

they told you to be.

You are not the pain they caused.

You are the pulse that kept you alive

when no one else noticed you were fading.

There is power in survival,

but there is divinity in becoming.

You have become the storm and the stillness.

The wound and the wisdom.

The before and the after.

This is what it means to reclaim yourself —

not to return to who you were,

but to rise as who you were always meant to be.

💌

You are not healing anymore.

You are becoming.
