Forgiveness can get misunderstood. Like it means returning, reopening, or restoring everything as it was. But it doesn’t always look like that. That is not what forgiveness is. Forgiveness has nothing to do with the other person. In forgiving, we can release ourselves from the burden, hurt, anger. We let that person go. We have no obligation to reestablish communication, relationship, or agreement.

Sometimes it’s internal. A release not a return. And protection can still exist alongside it. Think about one boundary that still matters to yo or comment “both” if this resonates. ~ julie

There are moments where speaking doesn’t feel steady. Where words come out slower; or less certain than expected. For me, speaking is very easy when it comes to presenting at a conference, leading a meeting, sharing my passion projects. Those I can talk about with confidence. When it comes to myself, though, talking about me, my daily happenings, my feelings it feels easier to stay quiet;
to wait until it sounds stronger; clearer; more confident. But that time has yet to come. I am trying, one word, one sentence at a time. But to speak up, to share...it is just too scary.

Yet not everything that matters arrives perfectly. If something needs to be said, something that I want to share....it counts. It should be valued. Comment “voice” if this connects or send this to someone who needs the reminder. ~ julie

Pushing through can look like strength. Keeping it together. Not needing anything. But over time, that kind of pattern starts to take something. Yet, I am so tired of pushing forward. Pushing just to get the next step. I wonder, do I need a vacation? Do I just need to allow myself to do nothing over a three day weekend? Or is the pushing the healing. Trying to capture maybe even recapture a part of me that has been buried for so long.

Ignoring your own needs doesn’t build resilience; it builds distance. Distance from myself, distance from others. The inability to engage, to meet new people, to make myself vulnerable. It all adds up.

If this feels familiar, drop a ⚠️or save this to come back to later. ~ julie

There was a time where certain emotions felt like something to suppress. For me, I surpress the hurt, the pain, the need for love. I do not have to worry about surpressing joy, laughter, happiness because I seldom feel it. I do not have to suppress those emotions. Rather, I am working hard to feel joy, laughter, happiness. At times I am noticing them. I hold on to them as long as I can, a little bit longer with each sensation. But then, it's gone again. Something to move past quickly; before they became visible.

But feelings don’t show up randomly. Even when they’re inconvenient; they point somewhere. Notice one feeling that came up today; without correcting it. If this lands, comment “notice” ~ julie

There are situations where caring turns into responsibility. Where someone else’s pain starts to feel like something you should carry. I carried that pain, someone's pain, for far too long. What got me to leave? My older daughter. Her words of ""if you stay and something happens to you, I wlil not forgive you"". Those words hit me hard. Those words told me of my importance to those who really did love me, cared about me. So, I stayed no longer.

If this resonates, drop a 💔 or type “release” ~ julie

Starting again can feel like losing everything. Like what came before doesn’t count anymore. But that’s not always true.

I have started again. Everyday I start something new. Its a another new step forward. Over the past few weeks, I have been pondering how I spend my time each day. How to make the most of what I want to do, feel called to do. I remain frustrated with the barriers that I put up that keep me from being as productive each day. I create schedules, jot down ideas, formulate plans, and maintain my daily diary.

I take steps each day. They are not always visibly but I am in a new place each night when I go to bed. Another step forward. Even when things look new on the surface though,
there’s still something underneath that carries forward. The past, the trauma, the abuse. But I keep pushing, keep accomplishing.

Save this if you’re in a season of starting again or comment “again” ~ julie

There was a time where kindness felt conditional. I had to earn kindness, earn love, earn someone's time.
Kindness came from effort, after proving something, after getting it right.

This past week while walking I stepped on an uneven edge and fell. Unfortnately, I broke my ankle. Didn't know I had broken it until the next day. But just the fall reminded me of what a burden I was when I have significantly damaged my other foot and ankle from two different falls. He didn't have time to be burdened. He did not have time to take care of me. He only had time to tell me to follow doctor's orders, stay off my foot. But give me any help? The memories are just running through my head.

Granted, today, I am on my own. I will take care of myself. I will care for myself. And I will begin the search to figure out why I have a tendency to fall. I am embracing getting older.

If this lands, comment “receive” or drop a 🤍 ~ julie

Giving can come naturally. I believe I am a very giving person. I lead, I survive by giving from my heart. I do not have much. Maybe because I do not believe I am worthy of much. Yet, sometimes I wonder whether I do not have much because people who live to survive are perceived to not have much. My life has been about survival.
Simply showing up for my daughters, for the families I have served. These are the people that have made me feel needed, worthy. I had something to offer, to make their life journey fulfilled, healed, supported, loved. I was being present. I was making space for them to flourish, to grow.

Giving without limits, that kind of giving starts to stretch beyond what’s sustainable. Giving until the well runs dry. Giving to those who just took. It took far too long for me to realize that the giving can be exhuasting. Caring, giving, shouldn't require overextension. ~ julie

There was a time where reactions felt like something to hide. Rather, there are still on going times when I hid my reactions. I hide them so that I do not take up space, so I do not have to explain myself, so that I do not have to hurt someone's feelings, so that no one will try to console me. I control my reactions quickly. I shut them down instinctively to stay safe.

But those moments don’t come from nowhere. They point to something. Even if it’s not clear yet. Not everything that surfaces needs to be judged. Yet, my first thought is always, how will I be judged, laughed at, bullied, shamed, blamed. Will I be silenced, pushed aside. ~ julie

If this lands, drop a 🧭 or the word “notice.”

There were moments where staying quiet felt like keeping the peace. Like speaking would cost more than holding it in. So things stayed unsaid. There was so much I wanted to say, to contribute to the conversation, to the community, to someone who might listent. It was safer to stay slient since the response felt unpredictable or because the rsponse hurt so deeply.

Over time, silence felt like weakness. It probably looked like weakness. It was easier to walked over. I still struggle in my personal life, in my day to day coming and goings. But, today I spoke up. Someone asked me if they needed to move some things so that I could get to my things. I spoke up and said ""yes""! Granted, in the given situation it was obvious that this person had no concept of their space; their items spead out in every direction. The ability to ponder how they could be in the way simply because of their inability to identify their space. It was a step in the right direction. I spoke up. ~ julie
