When did you last stop to think about the direction your life is going?

It’s easy to get lost in our busy minds. Social commitments, work, expectations. What others may think about you, or perhaps your writing.

I came across this quote on Instagram and it reminded me of how important it is that we run in the right direction. Ride our own wave.

Even if it takes years to find your own wave, it’s better than riding someone else's.

Sometimes we get stuck because our minds keep wanting to push us off our own waves. It’s easier to follow the steady, busy, stream.

But in the end, you’re the one who has to live with both the fruits and responsibilities of your actions.

The ocean of life is yours to explore.

Are you riding your own wave?
