“You need to make space in your heart for someone who has the capacity to love you just as much as you love them.”

I used to want to be something bigger than myself. I wanted to make an impact that lasted longer than I did. But I learned the way to do that isn't by trying to be bigger than you are. You do it by taking up the space you naturally fill in every moment. You do it by loving the people who naturally come in to your life. You do it by gracefully handling the hard circumstances that naturally occur. You do it by being a friend. A conversation with a stranger makes a bigger impact than a voice to a crowd ever could. Your love for one person can change generations. It's quiet. It's humble. Impact isn't always measured by numbers, it's often times measured by a single life. Your impact may be quiet. But it's rooted deep. May it flourish in ways you may never know about.

i just want to spend the rest of this year letting things flow for once in my life and not stress over outcomes and/ or situations i have absolute no control over. just letting God guide me while i work on being the best version of me.

It’s important to reiterate how crucial it is to keep your goals to yourself. Even to family members and friends, just keep it to yourself lol. A goal of yours that may sound crazy and bizarre to them may be aspirational to you, and hearing these unsolicited opinions from others really isn’t beneficial to your journey.

You’re allowed to do things simply because you want to. You don’t owe anyone an explanation for your behavior.
