Anna M. Stratulat

There’s something you need to know.

And maybe today is the right moment to hear it.

You are not behind.

You are not broken.

You are not too much, or too late.

You’re a human being… healing.

And healing doesn’t look perfect.

Sometimes it looks like crying out of nowhere.

Sometimes it looks like laughing again after a long time.

Sometimes it’s just waking up and choosing to try.

You are doing better than you think.

There’s so much power in you.

Even when you feel tired.

Even when you doubt yourself.

Even when the progress is invisible.

And I promise you—

this version of you, the one that’s learning, hurting, growing—

is just as worthy of love and peace

as the version you hope to become.

So trust yourself.

Be gentle.

Let life surprise you.

Because there are still beautiful moments waiting for you.

Still people who will feel like home.

Still days that will remind you why you held on.

You are not done.

You are still becoming.

And life… life can still be so beautiful.
