It’s OK to Move On πŸ¦‹

For a long time, I thought moving on meant I was letting go of something that once meant everything to me πŸ’”. I thought it meant I did not care anymore. I thought it meant I was giving up on something I once prayed would last 🀍.

But the truth is, moving on does not mean it did not matter. It does not erase the love, the memories, or the moments that helped shape me into who I am today ✨.

I stayed longer than I should have, not always in person, but in my heart. I held on to what used to be, hoping that somehow things would feel the same again. Hoping that maybe I was not as forgotten as I felt πŸ₯€.

I used to feel guilty for wanting more. Guilty for wanting to be happy. Guilty for realizing that I deserved to feel wanted, appreciated, and chosen without having to question it 🀍.

But I have learned that it is OK to outgrow people 🌱. It is OK to outgrow places. It is OK to outgrow versions of yourself that were never meant to last forever.

Moving on is not about becoming cold or heartless. It is about choosing peace πŸ•ŠοΈ. It is about choosing yourself. It is about finally accepting that you deserve the same love you give to everyone else πŸ’›.

Some people are meant to be part of your journey, but not your destination 🚢🏽‍♀️. And that does not make the love any less real. It just means your life is continuing, and you are growing 🌸.

I am no longer afraid to admit that I deserve more. I deserve happiness. I deserve consistency. I deserve someone who chooses me without hesitation 🀍.

Moving on is not losing. Moving on is healing ✨.

And I am finally allowing myself to heal.
