finding-yourself

We must seek out that which invigorates us, and engage it at all fronts. Art, music, literature, conversation, travel, nature__hatever it is that keeps the fire of our spirit bright__e must build our life around it; for, without our passions, the years ahead become a burden rather than a gift.

The journey will undoubtedly be a winding one, filled with surprises and setbacks as well as gifts. But I'm ready to embrace it fully, wherever it may take me.

If you learn to really sit with loneliness and embrace it for the gift that it is_an opportunity to get to know YOU, to learn how strong you really are, to depend on no one but YOU for your happiness_you will realize that a little loneliness goes a LONG way in creating a richer, deeper, more vibrant and colorful YOU.

A journey of self-discovery is never pointless, Prince Zuko. However dim your path may seem, and however far you may wander from it...the important thing is that you learn from all of your mistakes along the way and never forget for one moment who you are, or what you are struggling to be.

I will come back to you, I swear I will;And you will know me still.I shall be only a little tallerThan when I went.
