The unspoken anguish in healing.
This last panel was probably one of the most meaningful panels to me that I’ve drawn in this series so far. To be held while weeping from in anguish on the road to healing is such an incredible gift that we can both give and receive.
“Safe” does not always mean things are at peace and calm. But instead, “safe” can mean we can feel the feelings we have without having to hide and feel ashamed of them. It’s not pretending that things are okay when they aren’t. Safe is letting all the anguish, pain, hate, and grief out in its ugliest form and knowing that it’s okay. The people who love us will still be there to hold us and support us.
Healing is not pretty. It’s not easy, peaceful, or organized. Healing is hard. Gut wrenchingly hard.
But it’s also beautiful.
