carrying stones so heavy that you have 

stumbled for far too long to maintain balance, 

you have done your best to heal.

~~

and while the finish line may seem too long 

and far away, you have come an incredible

distance– i want to remind you of this.

~~

–when the journey is long, look back now and see how far you have come.
