This is beautiful..Perhaps the most surprising part of growth is that the version of you that needed to disappear was once trying to save your life.

The witch melts. The song remains.

And somehow, both are part of the same miracle.

Oh wow, I can relate to this so much! That feeling of finally letting an old version of yourself go is so powerful. Sometimes we don’t even realize how much we were still carrying her until she’s gone. I love the way you captured that mix of freedom, release, and almost wicked little joy in becoming someone new. 💛
