Open up and begin to heal

We can all go through life, just doing our thing, Dealing with whatever is thrown at us on our own, We don’t speak about it, We keep things a secret, We push all feelings, emotions down as far as they can go. And we can begin to accept how we are feeling as, just normal, That no one else will understand us, What we’re going through, And that we need to toughen up and just get on with it. However sometimes, it takes just one thing to make us see things in a different light. Maybe it’s seeing someone act a certain way - in a way that we wish we could be. Maybe it’s one person saying just one thing that shows us that things can be better, Maybe it’s a saying, a story, an image is all we need to see To make that change. If we can open up, Talk about how we are feeling on the inside, About how we get through things, cope and handle life and all its craziness, Maybe it could stop one person from going back to that horrible relationship, It could show one person just how far they have come on their own, It could show one person just how strong and capable they really are, It could show one person that they do have an abundance of love and support around them, It could show one person that they too have talents that could benefit others, It could show one person that they are loveable & worthy too. If we don’t make a change now, and let people know that’s it’s ok to talk, To feel all the emotions, That whatever they have experienced, the bad hand in life they have been dealt, And that it’s totally ok to begin to transform yourself in some way, Then when? Let’s share some stories, Let’s show people they aren’t alone, Let’s work together to bring a little hope to come people’s lives.
