You are allowed to break. Everything does.
The stars grow tired and fall.
The waves crash against rocks and shores.
Trees fall for both storms and the wind, leaving behind seeds
and saplings so a version of them can grow again.
Stormclouds part for the rain
and then part again for the sun to come through.
Night must break for the day and the day for the night.
The world is made of broken things piecing themselves back together
--this is what gives us the most resilient stories.
So why do you think that you were built any differently
than the night and the stormclouds?
You know how to put yourself back together again too,
just as well as they do.
Take heart. You have managed to rebuild yourself
a thousand times over from every bad day.
That is no small thing.
