...See more Hello! I would really like to invite everyone to write a love letter to yourself. I did one about 6 months ago, and I looked back on it recently and wow! It was so nice to see how far I have come. And reminding myself of all the little things I love about myself. I'd like to invite you to do the same. You don't have to do it here, you can do it in your journal, your notes app, heck you can even email it to yourself! I am going to write myself a love letter below though, feel free to post yours to this thread! Hello, Oh look at you! Look at how far you have come. You never believed you would get here, you thought it would always be the same. The same anxiety, the same grief, the same four walls staring on at you uncaring of the tears on your face. But look. Look around, look at yourself. Doesn't everything seem brighter? Doesn't it all seem so much more vibrant? Doesn't it feel like the world is vibrating, like the universe is looking upon you with such glee, just waiting to see what happens next? I'm not saying it's all perfect, we both know it isn't. We both know there will be times where the world feels grey again, where the air feels too still; stale. We know those times will come. And whether you believe it or not, I know that you will get through it. You've made it this far. You have more hope now, I can see it. In the slowly forming smile lines beside your eyes, in the callouses on your finger tips where you picked up your guitar again after it gathered dust for months, in the paint stuck under your nails from the project you never thought you'd get a chance to work on. It's in the ache of your jaw after smiling with your best friend, and in the faded hair dye that just won't stop washing out. It's in the wet bath mat, because you shower every day now, not just when you feel up to it. It's in the tidiness of your bedroom because you've finally realised that you deserve somewhere nice to sleep. It's also in the exhaustion of your hands after a long day, in the frown on your face as you figure out how to solve a problem, it's in the ache of your feet after you've been at work. It's because you know that despite the exhaustion, the frown, the ache, you will be okay. It's because you know that even if the bath mat is dry, even if your room gets messy, even if the callouses on your fingers fade, that you will get up and try it all again. You realise now that there is no permanent state of being, that at some point you will fall down again. But you also know that you are capable and able to get back up and that you will get past whatever hurdle life throws at you. You've realised that there is more than grief, more than anxiety, more than the four walls of your bedroom looming over you. It took a while, but you're here. And maybe you will feel hopeless in the future, but it will not last forever - you realise that now. You will be okay, you've made it this far. And one day you will look back on this letter and think "If only I had known back then just how much better things were going to get. I thought it was good then? It's even better now".
