Step by Step, You’ll Get There

March 4, 2025

The darkest times feel unbearable. You hear the clichés—this too shall pass, one day at a time—and roll your eyes. But when you’re in it, when life knocks you flat, those words don’t mean much. Until one day, they do.

There’s no shortcut through pain. No easy escape from heartbreak. Healing isn’t a straight line—it’s a messy, exhausting, gut-wrenching journey. You will face your demons. You will feel lost. But step by step, forward is still forward.

And here’s the thing: if your heart is in the right place, if you hold onto even the tiniest ember of light within you, you will find your way. Not immediately. Not painlessly. But you will.

Just take one step. Even if it’s small. Even if it feels like nothing. Because one day, you’ll look back and realize that every painful, uncertain, messy step was leading you exactly where you were meant to be.
