Keep moving

3 years on I keep repeating to myself that you are stronger and resilient than the stroke

In my head I tell myself a tip

In difficult times, move forward in small steps.

Do what you have to do, but little by little.

Don't think about the future or what may happen tomorrow.

Wash the dishes.

Remove the dust.

Write a letter.

Make a soup.

You see?

Advance step by step.

Take a step and stop.

Rest a little.

Praise yourself.

Take another step.

And then another.

You won't notice, but your steps will grow more and more.

And the time will come when you can think about the future without crying.
