Don’t put yourself in between brackets. Don’t add question marks to how you feel. You are you. Full stop.

I hope that you can trust That things will work out that you will work it out that everything will be worked out in time.

Come sit with yourself, just for a moment. Put an arm around your waist, your head on a shoulder. Be kind to yourself, as you would to others. Just for a moment, come sit with yourself.
Just like the sea started with a single drop, a book started with a first sentence, your future starts with a small step.
