They are important.
They were an important part of our lives.
They were an important part of us.
Because of them — today I am who I am.
Because of them — today I am where I am.
They were a road.
A stop along the way.
A lesson.
Lightness and laughter.
Difficulty and sadness.
They are important.
They were an important part of our lives.
They were an important part of us.
It’s worth separating these things within ourselves.
Putting them in their place.
Saying goodbye with the dignity and respect they deserve.
Not brushing them aside as we step into new loyalties.
Honoring them.
Bowing in gratitude.
Thanking them.
Taking what helped build me.
Taking what showed me something.
Taking what gave me ground to grow from.
The people who are no longer around us
are a resource we carry within us.
They are some of our most important lessons.
They are a blessing.
At the end of the journey of forgiving ourselves and others —
they are one of our greatest blessings.
“It’s not my fault”
We often carry too much on our shoulders.
“It’s not my fault”
Often, we weren’t the only ones making the decisions.
“It’s not my fault”
To let go of the guilt we carry… for life.
And for those… who are no longer with us.
