*muttering about lack of reading fairy pictures*

Sometimes, problems and feelings linger for a while.

These times are temporary.

Times of confusion, uncertainty, times of living with a particular unsolved problem do not last forever.
We make these times doubly hard by comparing them to our past.
Each situation and circumstance has had its particular influence in shaping who we are.

We do not have to scare ourselves by comparing our present and future to a painful past, especially our past before we began doing things differently or before we learned through a particular experience.

Know that the discomfort will not be permanent.
Do not try to figure out how you shall feel or when you shall feel differently.

Instead, trust.
Accept today, but do not be limited by it.
A new energy is coming.
A new feeling is on the way.

We cannot predict how it will be by looking at how it was or how it is, because it shall be entirely different.

We have not worked and struggled in vain.
It has been for and toward something.

Times are changing for the better.
Continue on the path of trust and be open to the new.
