I read an amazing post about post traumatic growth and along with this sentence

‘This may not leave you a better person, or a happier one but one that’s more in touch with yourself, your core, your strength.’

it got me thinking about you….

Look how far you’ve come.

I look at the person who stands beside me, who people adore, who has been through so much and has managed to come out on the other side a wise and caring person with strong morals and a genuinely good heart.

You still have a ways to go, but you’re here. You’re still standing. Finding some joy in life. Contributing to society. Loved by those around you. Mending bridges. Helping others and encouraging them on their right path in life.

Different achievements to the ones you’re used to but amazing achievements nonetheless.

Not every day is right. Not every day is easy. Not every day is fair.

But everyday I’m proud of you.

I hope you are too.
