No F.O.M.O.

. . . you have not missed out on what was meant for you . . .

We are all on our own timelines.

There are so many parts of my life that have turned out so vastly differently than I had planned. In the moment it felt devastating and confusing and hard - realizing the life I had planned, the things I believed I wanted, the landmarks I equated with success were all slipping through my fingers.

But now? I simply can't imagine my life today without the lessons learned, in my time, at my pace, when and how I needed to learn them.

There is no designated timeline for anything in your life. The sooner we can truly embrace that, the lighter our worlds can feel. You don't need to have your first kiss at a certain age, or graduate at a certain time (or at all), or be married before thirty, or do anything at any time simply because it seems like everyone else is. Your life is unfolding for you in the time that your heart needs.

Trust that.

Have patience.

Stop comparing.

Be present in the beautiful gift of your own life in this moment right now.

Goodness knows the world works in mysterious ways so I hope today you choose to trust and feel and know that you have not missed out on what was truly meant for you.
