“Just let it grow. Whatever it is that you’re in love with doing right now. Writing, painting, music, photography, calligraphy and anything else under the sun. If it’s good for your soul then just let it bloom naturally. Don’t overthink the success, the audience, the amount of time you put into creating. Just let it be and let love be your guide every step in the way.”

“Perhaps that’s the thing people misunderstand the most about the art of letting go. It’s something that doesn’t happen instantly. It’s something that takes a little bit of time. It’s something that hits you out of the blue like finding a new love in your life, a new song, a new friend. So when you make a conscious decision to let go, it simply means that you’re making room for new feelings to come into your life and sometimes they’re just not there yet. The best you can do is whisper a simple prayer to the sky, have a little bit of faith and trust that those new feelings are on their way.”

Learning to believe in yourself won’t always be easy. There’s no simple cure to self-doubt—that voice inside you that says “I will never be good enough.” That is why you should take care of your doubt—hold its hand in the rain and remind it that you are a human being and it’s okay for you not to be perfect. It’s okay for you to take longer than others. It’s okay for you to fail, it’s okay for you to learn and it’s okay for you to try again.

Today is a fresh start.

So I start with appreciating
a little bit more of what I have
and let go of the broken pieces of
yesterday.

I will find gentle joy
in the little things and I will
dance in the rain for I have faith
in the process.

I have faith
that recovery is possible for me.

I will survive.

Juansen Dizon, Affirmation For Depression (via juansendizon)

“Healing is not always soft clothes, a bubble bath with scented candles, acoustic music, and black coffee. Sometimes healing is boring. Sometimes healing is sleeping early, taking your medications at the right prescribed time, cleaning your room, taking mindful afternoon walks and meditating at least ten minutes per day. Healing is not always a magical moment you get from watching a Ted talk or reading an online self-help article. Sometimes healing isn’t glamorous. Sometimes healing is simply doing the boring work that takes daily practice, self-control, and strong commitment because it’s not something that happens overnight. Sometimes you simply have to take a step back and cleanse yourself from technology every once in a while and discover parts of yourself that you can cultivate into helping you survive that next panic attack. Healing is not always as exciting as looking at the stars but focusing on your progress and making serious efforts in taking care of yourself as you remember to breathe will eventually lead you to a place where you can find some beauty in your road to recovery.”
