Don’t be so hard on yourself
for not having it together
all the time, for not knowing
all the answers.
You don’t always have to
be sure of who you are,
otherwise there’d be nothing
left to discover.
You don’t have to know
where you’re headed or
have a clear vision of
the bigger picture.
Sometimes taking one tiny step
at a time is more than enough.
Sometimes slowing down just to
feel the wind blow against you
is the beauty of life right there.
Wander, be unsure when
it is natural to be.
Let yourself breathe.
We’re all rushing for
no reason anyway.
