One breath at a time.
Your thoughts of the future may be realistic or more likely theyre not.
You cant plan what will actually happen and while that is terrifying you might find comfort still.
Brooke Cagle
Maybe youll feel uncomfortable or maybe you wont.
Maybe youll fail completely or maybe you wont.
Your thoughts will tell you otherwise but you’re free to tell them to be quiet.
it’s possible for you to remind yourself your life is unfolding as it needs to.
you could remind yourself of the truths you believe in.
you might remind yourself you are whole in every moment.
it’s possible for you to remind yourself youre doing your best.
it’s possible for you to remind yourself you are always growing and healing.
you’re able to remind yourself you havent taken too many steps back.
it’s possible for you to remind yourself time isnt against you.
The Universe isnt against you.
God isnt against you.
Love isnt against you.
Youre the only one against you when youre being too hard on yourself.Feelings arent always truths.
When you are overthinking,you are in control of what you choose to think about.
You are in control of how how you choose to talk to yourself.
You are in control of the energy you choose to put out and accept in.
Are you around negative people?
Are you listening to negative people?
Are you talking to yourself negatively?
Are you believing lies you know are truths?
Are you trusting your true instincts?
How are you being?
I once believed I wasnt free to be me.
I was uptight all of the time.
I once believed all of my footsteps had to lineup the way I planned them out to.
I wasnt living one foot in front of the other.
I was living creating footprints before I even took a step.
Yes there are some realistic things that are necessary to plan.
But most moments must come with a go-with-the-flow mindset.
Situations hit hard that are genuinely out of our control.
How do we react?
When I didnt feel right nothing around me lined up.
More (better) opportunities come my way when Im not trying to figure everything out.
Freedom isnt in analyzing every single detail.
Its not in figuring situations out that dont need to be figured out.
Its not in making up scenarios that may never happen.Freedom isnt in perfection.Would you rather be perfect or free?
Freedom is in trying to let go.
Truths like, you are enough.
Truths like, youre doing the best you’ve got the option to.
Its in quieting the mind and listening to the heart.
Its in the way you think to yourself.
Its in taking care of yourself where you are.
Its in learning to listen to your inner voice that wants the best for you.
Its in wanting the best for yourself and knowing you deserve the best.
Its in speaking up for yourself when you want to shut down.
Its in looking within instead of in the world because freedom is found only within you.
Freedom is in letting go of the desires of perfection, one breath at a time.
