I could have stayed stuck

I could have made the choice to stay a victim

It would have been easier

to unpack
settle in
make victim-hood my permanent residence

IT WOULD HAVE BEEN EASIER

And it would also have been a
Sad
Dark
Lonely existence

I didn’t make that choice

My inner voice
my spirit
my connection to God
Would not allow it

I am eternally grateful!

There have been
many
many
many, times
I chose the wrong path

I was not listening to my inner voice of guidance
or
I was chasing after the wrong thing

It doesn’t matter how many times I headed in the wrong direction!

What matters is…

I always found a way to detour
a way to redirect
a new path to follow

back towards healing

back towards peace

back towards love

Back to… ME

And so can you… It’s never to late to heal!
