You will slowly let go, in so many different ways, in so many different phases.
Your healing will find you in places you never thought it would. You will let go in the obvious, tangible ways - in removing their things from your apartment, in taking down the photos from your wall, in learning how to sleep in the middle of the bed again, in learning how to make just one cup of coffee in the morning.
Don't you deserve to find someone who reciprocates your love, who wants to hold you on the days that feel dark and devoid of light, who wants to encourage your growth and see you realize your dreams and celebrate birthdays with you, and milestones with you, and make the sunniest kind of memories with you?
If you feel like you cannot possibly heal from whatever it is that is weighing on your mind or your heart right now — remember all of the times you have found yourself here, and remember all of the ways in which you survived. Remember all of the ways you stretched into your growth, even when it was uncomfortable, and even when it didn't feel like it was happening. Remember how you, slowly but surely, caught your footing. Remember how you, slowly but surely, bandaged all that was hurting within you, and you learned how to be kinder to it, you learned how to heal it. You have fallen and you have risen time and time again. Do not doubt your capacity to do it again.
