Quote of the Day

"You have given so much to this, and I just hope you know that even here, your work is not in vain. It might take a little longer to arrive where you want to be, but you are still free to take this day by day. Even when the world seems to be moving on without you. Even when you are weary of waiting. Even when you are having to watch others reach the same exact heights you were reaching for, you are not a failure. You are not behind. You will still arrive where you need to be in time. Your story is just going to look a little different. Yes, it is going to look a little different. You are going to look back on this season and realize, there is no way you could have predicted these outcomes. But you will rise, anyway. You will find that even when things did not go according to plan, it did not hinder you fro traveling the course. All along, you were being prepared for something so much greater than you. And no matter the additional time it took, it was not too late for you."
- Morgan Harper Nichols

- Natalie Goldberg
