Kavya Kulshreshtha

“Healing is not about going back to exactly who you were before, because that person wasn’t yet capable of seeing the storm before it hit, and that person didn’t know how to shield themselves from it. You aren’t supposed to go back to being naive, less jaded, or more unaware. You aren’t meant to return to your blissful mindlessness, a life in which you didn’t know about the contrasts, the pain, all of the good and bad that life can throw at you.”
― Brianna Wiest, The Mountain is You
