A Gentle Reminder

I hope you have the courage to go deeper. To never exist on the surface of your life, even if it’s easier or more convenient.

You are not afraid of being without it, because you know that you will always have yourself.

No one will ever fully be able to understand the internal battles you had to endure just to heal, just to grow, just to make it here today. Be proud of the way you fought to save yourself. Be proud of the way you survived.

being, deserve to take up space. You have to believe that you have purpose

our existence is finite. And as hard as that is to understand, as hard as that can be to connect with, from time to time remind yourself that in the most human way — we are all living on borrowed time.

Life is meant to be lived

Life is meant to be lived.

Stay here because you never know what tomorrow is going to bring, you never know what experiences are waiting for you on the other side of your fight.

Don’t forget to live because you think you’re living through your phone.

Stay here because that is truly the only way you are going to see that life does get better, that the pain does subside, that you will learn how to bear the weight of living, and loving, and hurting, and growing in the mess and in the awe of this existence.
