It takes courage to heal in general. To grow out of your toxic habits. To not bash yourself over for where you aren’t finished developing into the version of yourself, that you want to be one day. It takes courage to not blame yourself, for your errors and mistakes and eery deeds, your wrongdoings – whilst not anestethizing yourself with selfpitty at the same time either.

It takes courage to remove yourself from external opinions and take inventory of your mind and notice adopted opinions on/over yourself.

It takes courage to let go of others voices and hasty and often ignorant conclusions about you. And take space to do an honest self-evaluation.

It takes real courage to not just give in and to decide to grow out of the chaotic aftermath that your past toxic environments left in you.

But to look at the consequences your actions caused around you. It takes even more courage to still continue staying and make things the right way now. And it takes the greatest courage to not bind your sense of value and identity to your past flaws and errors, your past behavior, to see that you are much more than just that what once happened ❤️
