Love yourself. Make peace with who you are and where you are at this moment in time.
Listen to your heart. If you can't hear what it's saying in this noisy world, make time for yourself. Enjoy your own company.
Try.
Take chances.
Make mistakes.
Life can be messy and confusing at times, but it is also full of surprises.
Be happy. When you don't have what you want, want what you have.
Make do. That's a well-kept secret of contentment.
There aren't any shortcuts to tomorrow. You have to make your own way. To know where you are going is only part of it. You need to know where you've been, too. And if you ever get lost, don't worry. The people who love you will find you. Count on it.
Life isn't days and years. It's what you do with the time and with all the goodness and grace that's inside you.
Make a beautiful life, because you are beautiful.
Much love,
Mom
