Healing and growth don’t happen overnight, and that’s completely okay. Some days it feels like you’re standing still, and other days, you might surprise yourself with how far you’ve come. The truth is, progress isn’t always loud or obvious. Sometimes it’s quiet, steady, and hidden in the little choices you make every day.

Maybe it’s choosing kindness over criticism. Maybe it’s setting a boundary that once felt impossible. Or maybe it’s simply showing up for yourself when it would’ve been easier to give up. Those moments matter more than you realize—they’re signs that change is happening.

Try not to compare your progress to someone else’s. Everyone’s healing looks different because everyone’s story is different. Your pace is your own, and there’s no deadline for becoming who you’re meant to be.

Remember, peace isn’t a finish line you cross one day—it’s something you practice, one small step at a time.
