You have told yourself so many stories…so here’s to making room for beautiful ones

You have told yourself so many stories...so here's to making room for beautiful ones. here's to making room for embracing new ways of moving through this space, as you wait for what's to come.

Pay attention to the small things that bring you joy, right here.
Pay attention to the kinds of things that help you breathe.
Pay attention to any flicker of sunlight that finds its way through the half-opened blinds.

Even when it comes to the kinds of things you are hoping to see that haven't happened yet, it's not too late to explore why you think those things matter to you, in the first place.

And even more than that, notice how, through it all, you have continued to breathe through each day. You have continued to grow, even when it didn't feel that way.

Your story is not over.
It is not too late to meet a new version of yourself.

Continue to embrace your slow and steady growth
and the mindful pace it requires.
Keep making room to breathe
and keep creating space
to do any little that reminds you:
beautiful things take time.

Look for an area in your life where you can say this about at least one thing: "I will give this time. I will give it space."

And notice how, in that space, there will still be room to bloom.

It is not too late to imagine something new
and to explore what a new space can teach you.
