No matter how shattered you are or how dead you feel inside, you lived. You survived what you never thought you would.
It does feel like 'the you' that existed will never come back - but at times when life tries to beat you down again, you tell yourself, I have been through worse and lived.
I lived 6 months without hearing my mother's voice, I watched her when she breathed her last. Maybe I was hallucinating but at that moment it felt like she locked her gaze with mine. Like she wanted to tell me something.
I lived through that, I will live through anything.
