have so much to say about this; for brevity-sake, ill say that every challenge and pleasure you experience is meant to be observed, sometimes examined, to check-in about how youāre evolving in the process of being your best self.
success is ambiguous and subjective, itās whatever it means to you, but for me itās to be fully myself, take care and have a nice time.
when a shit thing happens or i donāt get my way iāve come to see it as a blessing and purposeful, and i ask myself what i could possibly learn from it. thereās always a thing to learn, even if itās mere acceptance. itās saved my mental life, i tell ya that
sometimes you think youāve āpassed a testā but the situation is a āpop quizā in a different format: how you perform on that assessment is not meant to trick you but to check in on your progress and maybe illuminate areas that still need your attention, something else to learn because the timing and scenario is different.
itās beautiful.
