"It's time we brace the grace in the unknown,
to step out of fear, and go.
To shine in light and love
to live out of the comfort zone."
I take one last look. I take a deep breath and enter.
The lady smiles at me and I sit down in that special chair. I think about all that has happened. Mom sharing their love story. And then he left. Physically left this earth. He had no other choice.
But he did leave me so much. His heart, his dream.
After two hours, she's done with the transformation and I look at the girl in the mirror.
My eyes widen at the sight of the difference. Mom needs help and I must be strong. No more thinking of sorrow. No more mourning every day.
I thank her and get up to leave. I will live every day to fulfill his dream to live out his legacy.
A new look, a new heart, a new vision. A new me. I will not submit to the pain and fear that once held me. I am free
I take one last look. I take a deep breath and walk out.
