on losing yourself-

somewhere along this tethered path i lost track of my purpose, even more, myself. i allowed the happenings of this life and a deep hurt to make me bitter. as a result, i've done things and i've said things, all of which are not me. forgive me, self.

floating is no way to live, and waiting for an apology is none either. so i accept there are just some things one must do alone. there are battles worth fighting for. i am worth the fight.

but how do you resuscitate a living thing?

i imagine you start at the beginning, at the place where digression birthed. it's all about finding the epicenter. the epicenter of a hurt, the epicenter of reaction, and the epicenter of consequence.

but first, before it all, you must choose to forgive.

forgive yourself. you're worth it and at your best, you deserve it.
