Читать книгу Girl Be Brave - Cheryl Hale - Страница 46

Just because you’ve started down one path doesn’t mean you have to stay there. You have options. When you can’t change your circumstances, you can change yourself.

Growing, adapting, and changing are all part of the journey. You are not required to stay in the starting position. You are allowed to change your mind and shift your beliefs. As a matter of fact, I hope you do.

Events can occur in life that instantly alter you. Some of them are tragic, and some of them are glorious. Experiencing the birth of a child can transform your life forever, as can the death of a parent.

You do not have to go back to the person you were prior to those moments. I’m uncertain if that’s even possible.

At times we need healing, but sometimes the change is so deep that it brings about growth instead. It catapults you forward to a more empathetic, humble version of yourself.

Give yourself permission to be the you that you are right now, at this very moment, all of it. Whether you are rejoicing, grieving, or surviving, live fully in your story. Don’t hold back.
