Gradually

Gradually... I will get wiser... the closer I get to you, my love, my wisdom gains more trust. I am realizing that no one else is out there for me... only you... Gradually..you make me better... more better than I ever thought I could be. Gradually... I will heal... Heal from the disease of loss. I have accepted I couldn't save her, and I may never heal completely but... Gradually... it will get easier. Gradually... I will accept my past for what it is...my past.. my future is based on my actions of yesterday, but today I find more hope that I can make a difference. Gradually...I will bring peace to the world. Gradually... My faith will move mountains... The sight of the sparkle in my eye will see a million days of hope and grace from the Lord. Gradually...I will accept my beliefs as a crossroad to growth. Gradually... I will stop giving myself a hard time..I am only who I am because the Lord made me this way. In whatever ways I falter, may I learn to continue walking the path of least resistance. Gradually...I will become the woman that I need to be. Gradually... I will be content with my mirror... Every time I look at myself, may I see more beauty as every day passes. Gradually...I will love myself completely. Written By: Laura Loo Date Written: February 17, 2016
