Sometimes miracles take a little while to pan out.

“

I know you. I know you’re hurting, and that right now, you think you’re not good for much of anything.

“

Every single person has a story to tell. Whether we’ve come from humble beginnings, fallen down, lost our way, struggled with debt, or faced the unbearable—we all carry baggage from our past—and we all find a way to fight through, to push on.

“

Who we are as people is not comprised of the negative pieces of our lives, but the positive. By the ways we’ve stood back up after being pushed down, risen after falling. By the way we’ve continued, and never given up.

“

We spend so much time getting ready for this future, stressing over what hasn’t happened, and setting plans for what’s next that we forget to live in the moment. We forget to celebrate how far we’ve come. We forget that life isn’t always going to unfold how we want it to—but maybe that’s the most beautiful part.

“

Anyone who loves you will open arms to you, not think you’re a burden.

“

If you really want something, the first step starts with you.

“

In the discomfort is where we find who we are, where we grow, where we become better and more resilient versions of ourselves.

“

What’s supposed to be ours will come, what’s meant to be will fall into place, what’s right will feel right and we won’t have to force it.

“

I can make today better than yesterday.
