You are not who you became when you were just trying to survive. You are not who you became to dull the pain. You gain nothing from punishing yourself repeatedly, from picking at old wounds and making them bleed again. You did not come to this life to leave unscathed and untouched. You cannot make up for the past by withholding yourself from experiencing the present. 

When you break, and if you go through life, at some point, you will, on your journey to mending, you must find your gold. Not everyone can be put together the same way; not every scenario requires the same type of gold. This is where you must sit still with all your broken pieces and let them show you what kind of gold you need. This is where you allow yourself to feel the weight of your brokenness as much as possible so that you can gather strength for your mending.

Start small. Ask yourself, am I content with what I’m doing? What would I do if I had freedom to change my life? Then start giving yourself that freedom.

I have to remember that the fear that I have is simply my mind’s way of reaching for something that it’s not sure that it can have.

Since we do not exist in isolation it is super important to consider how our actions and inactions interact with the journeys of others. Because If life is transient and yet connected and if we are all a part of a bigger picture then it is important to exist with intention.

I think that there is only one way to live; you must be so wholly and truly yourself that it makes other people put down their walls and guards and be themselves too. You must be so authentic and true to yourself that it inspires people to just be who they are.
