🦋MOURNING FOR A VERSION OF YOU THAT NO LONGER EXISTS

Good morning, dear reader;

Not all grief is about losing someone else.

Sometimes, it’s about losing yourself.

The person you used to be before the illness,

before the heartbreak, before life changed you.

That version who dreamed differently,

who laughed without fear,

who didn’t yet know what pain could teach.

This kind of grief is quiet.

There’s no funeral, no goodbye — just moments of nostalgia

for a self that feels far away.

But you are not gone.

You are evolving.

Every loss, every transformation, is an initiation into deeper truth.

Grieving who you were is not weakness —

it’s honoring the journey that shaped you.

It’s bowing to the versions of you that walked so you could now stand.

🪷 The old you is not lost. She lives within your growth,

in the wisdom of every scar and the softness of your heart.

Receive a hug from the heart and remember to share.

💛💛💛💛
