Healing takes time from "summary" of It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover
It's a common misconception that healing is a linear process. We expect wounds to gradually fade away, but the truth is, healing takes time. It's not a straightforward journey from hurt to recovery. It's a messy, unpredictable rollercoaster of emotions. One day you might feel like you're finally moving forward, only to be hit by a wave of grief the next. And that's okay. It's all part of the healing process. We often try to rush our healing, pushing ourselves to move on before we're ready. But healing doesn't work like that. It's not something that can be forced or hurried. It's a gradual unfolding, a slow unraveling of the pain we carry inside. It requires patience and self-compassion. It's about giving yourself the time and space you need to heal at your own pace. Sometimes, healing means taking a step back. It means allowing yourself to feel the pain, to sit with it and acknowledge it. It means facing the memories and emotions you've been avoiding. And it's hard. It's uncomfortable and messy and painful. But it's necessary. Because healing isn't just about moving on; it's about moving through. It's about processing the pain and letting it go. Healing is a journey of self-discovery. It's about learning to love and accept yourself, flaws and all. It's about finding the strength to confront your past and rewrite your story. It's about breaking free from the patterns that have held you back and embracing a new beginning. And it takes time. Time to heal, time to grow, time to become the person you were always meant to be. So be patient with yourself. Be kind to yourself. And remember that healing is a process, not a destination. It's about embracing the ups and downs, the twists and turns, the setbacks and breakthroughs. It's about trusting that, in time, you will heal. And when you do, you will emerge stronger, wiser, and more resilient than ever before.
