20x24 watercolor on canvas
I wish I could say there was a moment where I simply felt free, when something clicked and I felt better. That’s not the case. There are no clear lines in my story or restoration. No clear moment of healing. It was a slow and quiet change.
I felt buried under a dark cloud for a long time. I can’t even remember how long. Slowly, on some days, in some moments, I started to see light. I started to feel hope. I started to heal.
It was like I was slowly floating, slowly being lifted out of the darkness. I started growing and experiencing beauty once again.
There were still dark days. There are still dark days. But eventually there was truth in the the sentiment, that like spring, after a destructive winter, life was returning. I am restored.
