Something but not everything

Sometimes, the hardest thing to thank God for is what you survived.

Someone deceived you.
Something was taken from you.
And for a while, you may grieve not only the loss, but the person you were before it happened.

So when people say, “Just move on,”
you smile, because they make moving on sound so simple.

It isn’t.

But then you look at your life.

And you realise,
they took something, but they did not take everything.

God kept you.

And sometimes, that is enough reason to whisper:

Thank You, Lord.

Take the lesson.
Leave the weight.
Carry the wisdom.

And when your heart is ready,
move on.
