As I continue my journey, I hear whispers saying I'm strong. If only they knew...No, if only I knew all along that we all struggle, attempting to be strong. Yesterday, I started facing some of my darkest fears, demons, failures. I've been stuck in this tunnel far too long and would love to feel the warmth of the sun on my skin...the freedom away from this tunnel I have kept myself in for so long. It is a daily struggle, but I am noticing that as I get older my ability to focus on going towards the light is becoming more methodical and consistent. The voices beckoning from behind that drag me back into the dark, damp abyss are becoming far less powerful. I now hear voices in front of me. I am not alone. I do not have to be solitary in my journey but must make a conscious choice each and everyday to move forward, shedding the darkness and the voices that call from it. I have chosen to accept the new voices into my life, the encouraging voices that promise me that I do not have to travel alone anymore. It's okay to not be strong and solitary. I am allowed to find my footing, slowly and deliberately making my journey to the light, accepting that I need to let these kind voices into my life in order to make it there.
