In order to attain what I envisioned...in order to become the person I have always had this sense I could become...I have to face my fears, confront my imperfections and plod on with tenacity. I have to move outside my comfort zone to open this mystery of who I am capable of being. No matter how scary and I have to trust, have faith, that it will be worth it.
If I can do it, anyone can do it.
Transfigure yourself. Keep climbing the mountain, over the boulders, past the cold, the loneliness, the storms, the mistakes, the fear of what's ahead...keep going. The view is spectacular. But, prepare yourself that it won't look the way you think.
I am the same I was 3 years ago, but not. I am becoming the person I was meant to be. I'm still wrestling with where I came from, I'm still wrestling with the change and adjustment...I'm definitely out of the valley now. I'm on the mountain. Climbing out of the valley was much, much, much harder than I ever anticipated. But, it's how I know how tough I am today. And, I would have died had I been dropped from valley onto the top of the mountain. I wouldn't have been able to handle such a quick transformation. I needed each one of these painful, lonely, difficult steps to get to the top.
I'm not there yet, but, it's within sight.
Have faith. Fill your head with positive messages each day to drown out the negative. Gradually, it all comes together.
