Dear 14 year old me, you don’t know it yet but you survive. Not just the people that dimmed your light but the quiet tears at night. You saw yourself as weak but you wore your pain like it was nothing. It was as if it was invisible;I remember how you felt.

Thank you for falling and getting back up as if it was nothing.For loving those who did you wrong over and over until you learned boundaries. For only crying in private and for keeping a smile on your face around family and friends.

You were not broken, just went through to too much at a younger age. Because of that failed suicide attempt we bloomed from the darkness. You don’t know it yet but things got better in the future.

Thank you for surviving. You give me a second chance and now we have a career, a house, family and most importantly peace.
