“For what it’s worth: It’s never too late to be whoever you want to be. I hope you live a life you’re proud of, and if you find that you’re not, i hope you have the strength to start over.”

Even when you're tired, remember why you started.
the worst thing you can do is get stuck in wanting. it’s safe and easy to stay with the longing and desire, the yearning and wishing. it’s a seductive state of mind that can feel deceptively productive. but are you taking real, purposeful, intentional action? daily? because you can keep making all the vision boards, “planning” in your head, and watching others get what you want on social media… but none of that matters unless you act. imperfectly and often, with real physical movement in the real physical world. action is an energy that will draw what you want toward you, but you have to move.
No life is the same, not exactly. Though we are connected though our experiences no life mimics another. Every story book just as complex and beautiful as the author who writes it.
"Sonder" — noun. the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own.
