It’s a bit of a paradox, yes.
Resting will make you feel lazy when it’s actually helping you rebuild.
Not saying yes when you want to say no will make you feel guilty when it’s actually teaching you self-respect.
Asking for help will make you feel weak when it’s actually proof of your strength.
Letting go of what you can’t control will make you feel lost when it’s actually leading you to peace ✌️
Small steps will seem pathetic when they are quietly stitching you back together.
Healing doesn’t always look heroic.
Progress doesn’t always feel like victory.
But every quiet, painful, unseen effort is moving you forward.
Trust the process.
