Focus
Focus your thoughts on each moment.
Let go of the last.
Understand you will get to the future.
You are here, now.
Bring your focus in.

Peace
Breathe in peace.
Breathe out fear.
Breathe in healing.
Breathe out fear.
Breathe in trust.
Breathe out….
-M.
Grow
Process through the pain.
Feel each new growth as it changes you and your surroundings.
It is not going to be without discomfort.
You are growing, learning, and are yearning to become who you were meant to be.
Looking back, looking forward, staying present, it’s all okay.
Regret, forgiveness, understanding that each experience was for a reason.
For growth.
This process is not easy.
Forgiveness heals.
Forgiving others helps you also forgive yourself.
Letting go of attachments to feelings or emotions, pains or expectations, allows you to find peace.
Allowing peace helps you achieve more understanding of this life and the process of it all.
Don’t hold onto anger, judgement or fear.
Let go.
Release.
Be free of it so you can have peace.
You are worthy of peace.
You are allowed to feel good.
You will keep growing, no matter what.
It might not always feel good, but it will be okay.
You are safe.
You are loved.
You are healing.

Discover
If we wander, may it be for the chance to grow.
If we get lost, may it be for the chance to discover.
If we fall, may it be for the chance to pick ourselves back up.
-M.
You are Safe
I see you,
Hurting and not telling anyone.
I see you,
Falling and falling, struggling to pull yourself back up.
I see you.
It’s okay.
It’s all going to be okay.
You are safe.

Strength on the Horizon
You may not always feel it, but you are stronger than you think.
Look at where you are today, it wasn’t always easy, it wasn’t always a piece of cake.
You have fought through many battles, and you have stood your ground.
Look at where you are today, you are stronger than you think.
Yesterday, you may have been full of more motivation, but now here you are, you have gained more momentum, and now you have more power and distance, as those past battles are moving further and further away.
Look at where you have been before, lost and fighting, forever wondering what would come from all the war.
You are here now, a fighter, a warrior, you are stronger than you think.
Look at the clock, it ticks without looking back, unknowing of anything except each tick forward, but you can look back, and you can look to the horizon, if you need more hope, for there is always more strength to come, on the horizon.
You have come this far, you have made it here, let it all be and let that worry go.
You are stronger than you think.
-M.
Protection
You cover me with so much love.
You have helped me feel safe.
Making sure there is a balance so I can still feel independent and gain more self-confidence, in my own space.
Yet, however you can, you protect me.
You keep me covered and safe through all of the storms.
Wherever I go, I know you will be close.
Near or far, you are always there.
Thank you, you have become my safe space.
I didn’t know how much I needed you until I finally found you.
Now here we are, so far, yet closer than ever before.
-M.
Gone
There you were, walking in the fog.
We had been apart for so long.
It felt like a lifetime has passed by, since you’ve been gone.
Though, there was no embrace.
There was no tear in your eye, not even a drop that would make its way down your face.
It was as if you were different.
Your heart had changed.
My heart seemed to go silent, no longer could I feel its beat.
My lungs were waiting, desperately, hoping to again, soon, be able to breathe.
It was as if we could no longer be.
As I stood before you, there was a silent storm starting to thunder inside of me.
You turned away.
I couldn’t find the words to ask you to stay.
You were gone.
-M.
Here
I wanted to be here, this is where they told me to be.
They said I would do well here.
They told me this was where I was meant to be.
I waited and tried.
Gave it my all, even when I felt like each time was my last, again I tried.
I listened and followed, then I realized…
I cannot follow.
I must learn for myslef.
I must find a new place.
That was a big truth to swallow.
To be here, to understand…
To feel free, to be able to independently stand…
I finally get it.
I finally understand.
I am always exactly where I need to be.
Yes, here, but also, not where they told me I should be.
Here is within me.
Here is wherever I am, wherever I need to be.
-M.
