I'm healing.

There are times you feel like you've never cried this much before.
Like no one could have possible come close to seeing this much pain.
And that the wounds inflicted upon your heart are so deep that no medicine in the world could possible heal them.

Well, guess what? You're wrong.
May be the marks will stay forever.
But the pain eventually fades and recedes into a deep, dark corner of your conciousness, never to bother you again until you want it to.
That's right.
It is in your hands.
You can hold on to it forever and mope about it.
Or you can choose to look at life with a different perspective.

My new perspective says, I don't regret anything that happened.
Every experience makes you stronger.
When you find yourself caught in the middle of the Hailstorm, you gain more than you can imagine.
You learn to be immune and you learn to be armed.
You learn to fight and survive through every hailstorm that comes your way.

And most importantly it teaches you a lot of things about life.
It taught me that my self-worth is solely in my hands.
No one deserves the right to make my self-esteem suffer.
I don't need to vie for anybody's love or affection.
I don't need anybody's approval to feel worthwhile.
Because I know I am.

Having acquired this new philosophy, I'm proud to say that I'm definitely walking on the Path of Healing.
I wake up everyday to a new me, I love and accept more than ever before.

I've barely commented on your blog, but i read it pretty often..
and you know what ?? I'm exactly like you!!
I'm a typical typical libran too!! I can't stop going out of my way to help people and then people make me feel guilty for the smallest stupidest things i've said to them.. which makes no sense but makes me feel guilty..
and even i kind of changed sometime back, a little differently though.. I decided that I've gotto be proud of myself and its the other person's loss if he can't accept me.. turns out.. they don't have much of a problem with me anymore

i have experienced a similar thing..and its so true...once u r out of that deep down under place that u have been staying in n stop giving other people the power to hurt you..you get back all your stolen self-esteem...

and that not regretting nething totally works for me too!!

cheers...hope u r enjoying the new you to the fullest!!
