Yesterday I was drowning.

Today I’m flying.

Yesterday I felt pathetic, weak and scared.

Today I feel strong, resilient and brave.

Yesterday I felt mute, unable to connect to the world around me, drowned out by the slightest sound.

Today I have a voice. Today that voice feels valid. Today I spoke up and I was heard.

Yesterday I hated myself.

Today I love myself.

Who knows what tomorrow will hold…
