❝ one thing i have learnt this year is to live and live in the moment. life is tough, life is overwhelming and life is a struggle. a struggle to hold on. a constant battle of choosing between what it is and what it should be. this year, you found yourself in situations you never could've possibly imagined yourself to be in. you looked for yourself in everywhere you went and everyone you met. you thrived, you survived, you tried - even if barely. for the year, days, life to come, live. live in the moment. stay. breathe. it gets better. ❞

❝ you are here for a reason. i know that sometimes it doesn't feel that way. i know that sometimes life can be a difficult thing to navigate. it can break you down and challenge you in ways you never thought it would but i also know that you have the potential to do incredible things in this world. you have the capacity to overcome whatever it is that is hurting you or confusing you or making you doubt yourself. i need you to believe in that. believe, with reckless abandon, that you are meant to be here. trust in yourself - even if you haven't figured out what inspires you deeply, even if you haven't discovered your purpose, even if you're moving forward in the simplest, smallest of ways. just keep going. wake up each morning and be gentle with yourself. do the work. feel whatever it is that you need to feel. tuck beautiful memories into your chest for safekeeping, revisit them whenever things get too tough. remind yourself of the art you want to create, of the things you wish to write, of the places you want to visit, of the people you have yet to meet. no matter what, just continue to remind yourself that you are going to make it. ❞

❝ i do not know all the places you have been but i do know there is a place at the table for you. i do know there is room for your laughter, your stories, your thoughts about things, your unfinished sentences, your wildest of dreams. there is room for your presence. there is room for you to be here in this moment, for all of this matters, here at this table and every moment after ― morgan harper nichols. ❞

❝ when we're in pain, people are too quick to say, 'get over it', 'move on', 'its not that bad' but we don't get over grief by denying it. we have to feel it, we have to give it it's due. we have to dive down to the very depths of our sorrow, relive every terrible moment and endure the torture of asking what could've been and what will now be. we have to bleed out before our hearts can start beating again. ❞

❝ how many of you didn't know certain things about yourself until you discovered them after spending a few hours with a new friend or going on holiday with your cousins? then suddenly you came across a trait you never knew you had. it's like you have to go through new experiences to know how you'd respond to them.
          
          
          you need to taste new food to find out what your favourite cuisine is. you need to press your feet into the sand and the ocean to remember how good it feels. you need to laugh at a few jokes before you learn more about your humour. you need to meet people, talk about life, philosophy and politics to know what your views on those matters truly are. you need to feel happiness like never before to realise what it means to you and how much you need it in your life.
          
          
          and you need to feel pain on the hands of people that you'll accept you don't need going forward. you need to fall head over heels in love with the wrong person to know what it's like when it's with the right. and sometimes you need to go through the darkest moments in your life so that when they pass - you realise that you want to truly welcome the light. ❞

❝ it's just really scary how unpredictable people are. at one moment, they make you feel as if you're finally home and get you all comfortable and attached to them and the next they could be so brutally distant and harsh to you. that isn't everyone though. life has its own ways to teach us a lesson that is letting go of what doesn't want to stay. believe me what wants to stay will find a reason to, despite all odds. who wants to genuinely be with you will never abandon you. someone who doesn't wanna stay won't care how deeply you love them. it's a tough lesson to learn. i hope you let go knowing that the better is yet to come. stay strong. ❞

❝ start where you are and move with humility; recognizing that you may make mistakes along the way and that's okay. what matters is that you are showing up. do not let fear or shame consume you. do not invite them into the conversation. give them no power, no voice, no authority, no control. instead, choose grace; knowing that grace will guide your steps and help you to find your footing as you navigate your way to the future. lean in to the fight - even when it's uncomfortable, even when it'd be easier to back down and do nothing. take your stance. there's work to do. the universe is in motion and so should be you. ❞

❝ When obstacles arise, don't be surprised. Don't get stressed out or allow yourself to get lost in worry or anxiety. Instead take a deep breath and invite wisdom into your situation. Remember, for every problem, there is a solution but it's going to require hope, creativity and faith to find it. The hope that there's a way out. The creativity to find a way around the problem. The faith that you are strong enough to conquer the problems that you face. You are strong enough to overcome any mountain you face, you got this. ❞

❝ Look at you. You're young and you're scared. Why are you so scared? Stop being paralysed. Stop swallowing your words. Stop caring what other people think. Wear what you want. Say what you want. Listen to the music you want to, play it as loud as you want and dance to it. Go out for a drive and forget all your worries. Stop waiting for Friday, for weekend, for the perfect moment or the right time. Live now. Do it now. Take risks. This life is yours. You need to realise that you can do whatever YOU want. ❞
