What growth feels like

Growth fits differently once you start to see and acknowledge it. 

Growth starts to feel like the figure hugging curve riding dress that fit like a glove.

Growth starts to feel like dancing to your favourite song as the sun’s lights join through the open window. 

Growth starts to feel like a smile in the midst of a storm.

Growth starts to feel like the lifting fog on a low visibility morning as you drive to work.

Growth starts to feel like reassurance, every heavy heartbeat will ease eventually.

Growth starts to feel like once that lump in your throat dissolves to tears, you will get over this.

Growth starts to feel like ‘yer, ride this out, ride it all out, because tomorrow we not doing this’ and feeling strength in that.

Growth starts to feel like acknowledging ‘yes you are scared, yes this isn’t how you imagined it working out, yes, yes, yes’ but also knowing you have survived much worse.

Growth starts to feel like yes it stings but what to do, we move. 

Growth starts to feel like creating even when everything is screaming for you to pacify your heavy body and lay in bed. 

Growth starts to feel like the harnessing of the energy, letting it go and not hoarding what is of no use. 

Growth starts to feel like acknowledging pain is not permanent, nothing but love is. 

Confusion is futile in this game, you roll with the punches or risk being left behind, it all keeps going, with or without you. 

You have to show up play your part for you

Growth is remembering that things go forwards, always.
