I realized I almost forgot to let go of the limitations holding me back
I almost forgot to embrace the life that had been so patiently waiting
I almost forgot to take the chances that I knew would lead to my dreams
I almost forgot to create the beautiful things in my mind that would help people
I almost forgot to believe in myself and all I am capable of
I almost forgot there are people who care
I almost forgot to breathe and take one step at a time
I almost forgot all I am grateful for
I almost forgot that feelings aren’t facts and I can choose again
I almost forgot to rest, calm my nervous system and soothe myself into safety
I almost forgot to remember all the things that keep me safe and okay
I almost forgot writing heals my heart and calms my mind
I almost forgot it all
Until I remembered
