Healing is accepting all emotions that come along, face them, dont put them away, this will destroy you from the inside and the beautiful soul you are!

Healing, to me, is a constantly evolving. It started with accepting what had happened to me. I hope that one day I will confide in someone about my experience and truly heal from it.
