From Rage to Healing: How to Reclaim Your Energy and Break Free
Some things should never have happened. Some wounds were never yours to carry. And if you’re angry about that? That makes sense.
Rage is a natural response to injustice. It’s the storm that rolls in uninvited, the fire that surges through your veins when you recognize how unfair, how undeserved, how deeply wrong something was. And if you’ve been holding onto that fire, if it feels like the only thing keeping you standing, I want you to know—I see you.
Anger is protective. It keeps you from collapsing into grief. It builds walls around the wounds that feel too raw to touch. It says, "This should never have happened." And it’s right.
But anger also asks for something in return. It demands your energy. It feeds on your focus. It keeps you locked in a battle with something that can’t be undone.
And here’s the truth no one likes to say out loud: you can rage against the past for as long as you want. You can spend every single day for the rest of your life demanding justice, screaming at the sky, replaying the ways you were wronged. But no amount of righteous fury will change what is.
And that is an incredibly painful truth to sit with.
The Brick Wall and the Door
Imagine you’re standing in front of a massive brick wall. This wall represents the past—the things that happened, the things that shouldn’t have. You’re furious, and rightfully so. You bang your fists against it, scream at it, demand that it break apart. But the wall doesn’t move.
You have two choices:
🔥 You can keep hitting the wall. Keep slamming against it, trying to force it to crumble. You’ll exhaust yourself. You’ll stay stuck in the pain. The wall will remain.
🌿 Or you can turn around. And when you do, you might see something you hadn’t noticed before: a door.
It’s not easy to step through. The path beyond it is uncertain, filled with things you’ll have to process and heal. But beyond that door? Freedom. Relief. A future not dictated by the past.
Because no amount of anger will rewrite what happened. But healing? Healing changes everything.
Healing Doesn’t Mean Forgetting
Choosing to heal doesn’t mean what happened was okay. It doesn’t mean letting anyone off the hook. It doesn’t mean pretending it didn’t hurt.
It means reclaiming your life. It means refusing to let what hurt you continue to hold the reins. It means turning all that energy inward, using it to build yourself back up instead of staying in a fight you can’t win.
Healing is not passive. It’s not weakness. It’s the most radical act of self-reclamation there is.
Where Is Your Energy Going?
If you’re here, reading this, something in you is ready for more.
So, ask yourself:
💭 Where is your energy going right now?
💭 Are you still fighting the past, or are you ready to start building your future?
You don’t have to rush. You don’t have to let go of anything before you’re ready. But when the time comes… your power is in what you do next.
