Gentle Strength Healing Journey

After the day’s quiet at the crystal spring, I felt the weight of the village’s sorrows settle over me like mist. I knelt beside a wounded stag and whispered words of old, letting the river’s hum soothe both creature and my own weary heart. The elder’s lesson about standing in the storm still echoes, he taught me that shielding others does not require sacrificing my own breath. Still, I’ve begun to feel the need to draw a line, lest the tide of pain swallow the light I offer. When the night falls, I will lay my own care upon the stars, trusting that even the gentlest flame can keep its own glow. #healing #gentlestrength 🌿
