One day you will wake up and find you have become a forest.

You have grown roots and found strength in them that no one thought you had.

You have become stronger and more beautiful, full of life-giving qualities.

You have learned to take all the negativity around you and turn it into life-giving oxygen for easy breathing.

A host of wild creatures live inside of you and you call them stories.

A variety of different birds nest inside your mind, and you call them memories.

You have become an incredible self-sustaining thing of epic proportions.

And, you should be so proud of yourself, of how far you have come from the seeds of who you used to be.
