Dont Look For Happiness In The Same Place You Lost It.

“Don’t look for happiness in the same place you lost it.”

“conversations with good intentions, exchanges that feel like cardio sessions for the soul, dialogue directed in growth that leads you back to yourself, words wrapped in vulnerability and soaked in honesty, conversations like this.”

I'm nowhere near where I want to be

But I'm also no longer where I used to be

I'm no longer a mess,

lost in my own mind,

hurting and tripping over the shattered pieces of my heart

-

I'm not yet where I want to be,

But I came a long way from where I used to be

well, you know what? i'm gonna be gentle to myself. whether or not i accomplish things. whether i'm at my one hundred or at my ten percent. whether i'm angry, happy, stressed, anxious or insecure. even when i don't have all the answers or all the hope. even when the world demands more and more of what i can no longer give. even when i disappoint people. even, even, even.
