At the beginning of this year, I received pretty good news, and even though it was something I was looking and wishing for, knowing that now it was a reality, felt very frightening.
I got lost. I didn’t know who I was anymore, because the truth is, I was not going to be the same woman ever again.
There were days when I felt literally like a moth on its metamorphosis process before becoming a butterfly.
A couple of months after, I’m barely figuring out who I want to be still, but now I’m able to say it has been a beautiful process. I’m grateful for these moments of transformation, although they can be very uncomfortable, because now I have new priorities and I’m clear about them, I have new goals to accomplish that bring purpose into my life and I’m cleared on what was not serving me anymore. I have a new start, a new life ahead, and that’s exciting!
During this process of transformation of becoming a new version of myself, being in solitude has helped me a lot, observing my thoughts and feelings without self-judgment also has been of great help. I’m letting me simply be, without making me do things that don’t resonate with my soul anymore. I’m also not obligating me to be the old version of myself.
I’m telling you all this because I know changes can be hard, and I’m also telling you this to encourage you to be patient with yourself in these moments. Self-love is also giving yourself time to just be. In life everything always changes, it's like a cyclical dance. Just as a year has seasons, we also have stages of change in our life. We die and we reborn many times in a single lifespan.
If you are going through a moment of difficult transformation, be it because of good news like in my case, or because of some tragedy, get to know yourself again, without judgement, allowing yourself to be and unfold your new version at your own pace, do not be afraid nor be ashamed to start over again from scratch as much as you need it, and let go of what no longer serves you, so that you can receive the new with open arms.
