That is the goal, right? To find happiness, to find purpose? Don’t shy away from it when you do.

I write because people need to know they are not alone. I write to know I am not alone.

It is ok to just be for a while without a conclusion in sight. Rest in knowing that the beautiful thing about seasons is that they always change; they are never infinite, they come and go. What is today may not be tomorrow. You are on a journey.

Being single means that I can be selfish with my time, my finances, and my energy. No other time in my life will I be able to determine where those things go like I can when I am single.

They taught me that despite my flaws and hurts, my story is still valid and that gave me the strength to validate other people’ stories. Because they taught me that it is ok to be different, I can help other people accept their differences.

We need the unknown. We need the reminder that we are small in this great, big world. It keeps us humble. It keeps us yearning and guessing, engaging. It keeps us questioning.

Life is a precious thing. Some of us will get 100 years here, some will get significantly less than that, but depending on the approach we have, we can make it one hell of a story.

It’s more difficult to be alone, but I know what to expect here, there is a consistency here.

Don’t be afraid to let life happen.
