Strong reminder:
none of us knows what tomorrow looks like. stop waiting for the “perfect time” to start living.
romanticize your life. take random photos you’ll smile at years from now. read books, go for long walks, dance to your favorite songs, light a candle, watch the sunset, buy yourself something you’ve wanted, and celebrate the ordinary moments. happiness isn’t something you find later. it’s something you create today.
You don't need to know exactly where you'll end up. You just need to keep becoming more capable. Capability creates options, options create opportunities, and opportunities create futures that were invisible when you started.
The longer you postpone the life you want, the more responsibilities accumulate, optionality shrinks, and what once felt temporary becomes your permanent life.
