I look at my life and realize all the things I wanted to be I either am or can be if I wanted to be them now.

There’s no time limit. There’s today. And we can reckon with the what ifs if we want

Or we can take today by force and be the us we wanted to be when the still waters embraced us

But the choppy waters are more helpful to the development of the soul.

So do we want stillness or growth?

Don’t run from the chop. Be willing to lean in

It’s worth it in the long run if you’re willing.

I hope I’m always willing and I hope that makes sense.

Tonight, I will rest in the knowing that all things work together for my good.

Even the hard things.
