Charis POV :

As I stood on the brink of my own well-being, I had an epiphany: to heal, I needed to carve out time for myself amidst the chaos of daily life. I decided to attend live events once a month—simple outings that became a form of much-needed self-care. It had been ages since I'd truly prioritized my own needs, and as I gave myself permission to step away from my usual responsibilities, I began to reclaim little fragments of joy I had long buried.

With every event, I felt the weight of my roles—an ex-fiancee, daughter, sister, aunt, caretaker—begin to lift, allowing space for the person I used to be. I rediscovered my knack for storytelling, an old passion that had lingered in the background of my life. I felt invigorated as I connected with new friends and shared ideas. Each laugh, each conversation, facilitated a slow but profound reconstruction of the parts of me that had been overshadowed by the demands of my responsibilities.

In those moments, under the bright lights of events and the hum of vibrant conversations, I learned something essential: I could laugh again. I could share stories and allow myself to be vulnerable without losing sight of what truly mattered. This journey of rediscovery has shown me that joy resides in the little things, waiting patiently for us to remember how to embrace it. Perhaps, dear reader, the same light can be kindled in you. 

Standing at the crossroads of letting go and embracing what lies ahead, I'm learning to honor my past without being shackled by it. There's a delicate beauty in cherishing the experiences that shaped me while simultaneously opening my heart to new adventures. My journey through self-care has not only been about reclaiming joy but also about cultivating a healthy relationship with my history.

I've begun to realize that it's possible to hold my past close without allowing it to dictate my future. I can honor the chapters that have culminated in the person I am today, yet still, dream again. In the midst of this exploration, I invite you to reflect on your own journey. What past experiences would you like to honor? What new dreams are waiting for your attention?

As I navigate through this healing process, I recognize that the path is not linear, but every moment spent rediscovering myself brings peace and joy. The world is full of opportunities just waiting for us to breathe them in. So, I urge you, dear reader, to embrace your journey of rediscovery. Allow yourself the grace to dream again, and trust that on the other side of that dream lies a newfound sense of empowerment and joy. Together, let's take this journey, honoring where we've been while joyfully embracing all that is yet to come. In my next chapter, I will try to give you some tips that I am still currently doing to move on and enjoy my everyday life again.
