“Our transformation is not always loud and arrow fast. Sometimes, it’s years later, you’re standing there, when your jaw softens and you realize you’re no longer the same as when you first walked in. Where you were once closed, you have now let yourself slowly fold open. Where you were once hardened, you have now become weathered silk and see-through. It is okay to be here. It is okay to not rush through and destroy the middle - the place where you reach for the future just before you shed yourself of the past. Each valley holds rich value. Each in-between gifts you the resilience to greet what’s next.” @danielledoby
