Hitches
noun:
a temporary difficulty or problem.
"everything went without a hitch"
I've been thinking a lot about the "HITCHES" in our life lately...
How they shape us, how they strengthen us. How they spit us out on the other side as WARRIORS capable of way more than we thought we were.
But here's the real thing about hitches.
They HURT...
Like, a lot.
So I just want to say, if you're in the middle of a hitch, if you haven't come out victorious, haven't had the epic rising-from-the-ashes moment yet, if you're still in middle of the part that hurts...
I see you, and I'm sorry.
So hey! If this Monday finds you in a storm of your own hitches, I'm sorry...
Hitches suck. I've had a few of my own recently, and I can join you in saying, they SUCK. MAN, it sucks along the way. And it's okay to feel that way.
But, believe you're gonna make it. I know you're gonna make it. But I also know that right now, it hurts like hell. It's
dark and uncomfortable and unfair and seeming never, ever ending. It's good, it's okay to acknowledge that.
You're totally gonna make it. You're already way stronger than you know.
Sending you all the love and solidarity today.
Rise Up...
Swim across the sea of hitches...
Something beautiful is waiting for you on the other side...
