It is important
to take things
slowly
and allow
recovery to happen
at its own rate.
There are no
magic formulas
for healing
physical,
emotional,
and spiritual wounds.
Healing occurs
on
its own schedule.
Sometimes
recovery
can be traced
in measurable milestones,
and other times,
it occurs
quietly
in the dark.
There are times when feelings seem to be
just on
the edge of our awareness.
A sudden, uneasy sensation.
A fluttering of the heart.
Signals of feelings waiting
to be
expressed?
Sometimes,
such sensations
are just
mysterious,
passing perceptions.
Other times,
I realize
that a fluttering is
a signal of a feeling waiting
to be acknowledged.
Occasionally,
I recognize
that I have received
a message, but only
in retrospect.
