Grounded and Growing

The earth does not rush to bloom.

She waits.
She breathes.
She holds space for her own becoming.

And so can you.

You are not lost
Just because you are still.
You are not behind
Just because the world moves fast.

Sometimes the bravest thing you can do
Is plant both feet in the moment
And say to yourself:

I am enough right here.”

Hell,
Even the tallest trees
Started by rooting themselves
Deep into the everchanging world.

And maybe that’s where you’ll find your peace.

Not above
Not ahead

But right here.
Right now.
Grounded
And growing.
