Young me would be so proud of the woman I am today. 🥹🤍 She had no idea what was coming or how much she would have to endure. She carried so much pain in her heart and convinced herself that it was okay. I wish I could go back, hold her tight, wipe her tears, and tell her, “Baby girl, none of this was your fault. You did nothing wrong. You were simply loving with a pure heart, trying your best, and holding on to what you believed in. You never deserved the pain you had to carry.” I would tell her, “It’s going to be okay. One day you’re going to find yourself again. You’re going to heal, smile again, and become the woman you were always meant to be. Just look how far you’ve come.” ❤️🩹🥹🤍
