When, despite all the grief, sadness, and unexpected twists of life, you love the version of yourself you’ve become along that journey. How life cracked you open, and suddenly all that light that was always inside you is finally pouring out.

You cry a lot, and sometimes it’s tough, but it’s also the most beautiful thing ever, because you’ve never felt so connected to life and yourself. And you know you would never, ever trade this version of you for changing anything that’s happened in the past. All of it was worth it to be here now.
