A Letter to My Younger Self
Trust that life will unfold as it’s meant to be
“We are like flowers, an open connection to our higher self, but without connection, just like without water and sunlight, the flower can’t grow to it’s full potential.” — Unknown
It’s so beautiful to come across the glimpses of wisdom I captured in my journals throughout my youth and university years. I’ve grown so much as a person and now beginning to honor the power of letting go and being myself, knowing that I’ve integrated these experiences and my studies into who I am today.
It has been a fruitful and evolving journey to come to this state of peace that I now have. This state of understanding that I am enough — that success is the simplicity of enjoying life and tuning into joyful moments. Knowing that I have everything that I need within me, and always seeking from within rather than being determined by external circumstances.
Looking back, I realized I was so addicted to being busy. I constantly felt the need to ‘do enough’ and to feel like ‘I made it’. I put these all in quotation marks as they are all defined by what you think of YOU rather than what you have achieved.
“Success is liking yourself, liking what you do, and liking how you do it.”― Maya Angelou
