actively breaking the cycle but becoming tiresome of the rotation. wanting to imbue greatness before you can sufficiently weather within it and appreciate it's consequence just as much as it's bounty.

currently in the midst of becoming something greater than who i am now. not there yet, but i feel it brewing. im slowly uncovering a path that i buried while trying to pave a new one years ago, day by day.

been feeling v compelled lately to practice self-respect in the form of dedicating time and energy into honing my creative skills despite the loathsome grind of my 8 - 5 job.
i spent a lot of time and money and emotional energy to get the job i have now and i don't hate what i do but i do know that there's more to all of this beautiful life than playing it safe and getting sucked into a monotonous cycle.
loving and respecting myself means devoting myself to my higher aspirations. deep down i know my soul glows brightest when i create and i'm seen thru that work.
i'm on a ferocious pursuit to brighten that glow every day and i hope you are too if you feel that same impulse.

you carry deep longings, creative promises, ancient whispers
you carry greatness
you want to tap into it, you want to access it now,
you want to have arrived, to be the fullest you that you will ever be
but some of that inner gold can only be found on the other side of crucibles
in the aftermath of fires that will form you
through suffering
so embrace it all: the soaring heights and gold medals and the seasons of desert darkness,
let it make you who you truly are, let it burn away the falseness and posturing and people-pleasing,
savor every moment

But to the question — how did I figure out what I wanted to do and be?
I haven't really yet. No idea where I'll be in a decade.
But if I can figure out the next right thing today, that which is true and good, that which is marked by love and care for community, then my path is probably illuminated just long enough for me to take the right next step.
Q to You: what makes your heart soar?

as many very wise people have said comparison is the thief of fucking joy. I mean you hear these things time and time again but the validity of the statement never really reigns true until you are on the other side of it; in the muck, reflecting on all the ways in which you are not where you are "supposed" to be or meandering over the experiences everyone else around you has had. I won't lie to you and say that I fully believe that the derailments we face or the adversities one might endure are necessarily all products of "higher" teachings BUT I do believe that we rob ourselves of so much dignity when we use these hardships as anchors to what the rest of the world is pushing upon you. it is okay to take your time. it is okay to fail and not know how to pick back up the pieces. society SHOULD encourage everyone to move in accordance to their own natural rhythm and not make people conform into these perceived notions of growth. move at your own pace. we are all flailing around trying to figure this shit out. seek fulfillment as you chose. be gentler with yourself. being alive is already hard enough, and you've made it this far... and that pretty fucking incredible to me!
