"May you never feel the weight of your emotional baggage."
Benito Di Fonzo
Carefully climbing the mountain, the challenged woman left old sorrows in every unsuspecting crevice. Moving upwards, rock by rock, she was determined to reach the top. Words from others filled her head: Get over it! Let it go! Think positive! Although the mountain side was strewn with her garbage, reaching the top, her wings were heavy still.
Holding herself accountable, this kind soul had extended forgiveness to everyone and no longer judged. She creatively used skills to facilitate healing of her brokenness. Images of new futures were held in her head, and yet the tears continued to fall. "Believe," they said, like it was the simplest cure of all.
Theoretically taking flight was an adventure into the unknown where life could begin once again. There would be freedom and new beginnings without despair ... that's what the mentors said. Her spirit was strong and courageous, but her wings just wouldn't bend. "Time," they said, "give it more time."
