“If your self-care system is any good at all, it will not protect you from your growing pains. It will not cover up your longings for love. It will not silence the aching that you have for your destiny.
Because if you really want to heal, you have to be willing to feel.
If your self-care system is built to last, it will reveal your truths without apology. Making the hurt of a situation more acute so you can learn from it immediately. Making the lessons that much sharper so you can witness them from a mile off. Making the truth land that much deeper so that it can be integrated into you.“ — @chaninicholas
