it is you didn’t feel good naturally, before you knew how

to start showing up and allowing your feelings. When you

still lived in the darkness, you had to suppress that and

project it onto other issues. No longer.

You are showing up as you are today and taking what’s

yours, not what belongs to some imaginary version of

yourself. Not what you think the world thinks you’re worthy

of. You, here, now.

That is the true healing.

In fact, the universe does not allow perfection. Without

breaks and gaps, there would be no growth. Nature depends

on imperfection. Fault lines make mountains, star implosions

become supernovas, and the death of one season creates

the rebirth of the next.

You are not here to live up to the exact expectation that

you’ve mustered up in your head. You are not here to do

everything precisely right and precisely on time. To do so

would require stripping your life of spontaneity, curiosity,

and awe.

WHAT LEAVES THE PATH IS

CLEARING THE PATH

There is nothing that you can do to win someone or something

that is not meant to be yours.
