Recovery
Recovery isn’t linear, it’s a process. Recovery is taking a stumble and realizing, in that moment when you briefly look back, that you’ve made some progress before you fell. Recovery is sitting down in it for a while and deciding to continue growing. Recovery is a kick in the ass at times and it’s not easy. You will fall, you will stumble, you will hurt. It may or may not be pretty. It may be quick or take a few years. The point here is...recovery is possible.
