A lot goes into self-care. Even when I want to feel cared for, I know that I am the only one who must always look after myself.

You’ve Climbed a Mountain
Not-knowing allows curiosity to motivate growth to proceed. One step at a time in the present and eventually we will look back and recognize our accomplishments. What is built within is as significant as the trail we tread without.
Use Your Doubts and Worries as Mental Training
I can allow worries to become stresses or I can use them as training and get to know myself better. Not everything I worry about is reality. It never hurts to be prepared.
Discovery, Not Validation
I think I want it but it may not be for me. It doesn't mean that I'm left out. It means that I must be myself, even if it is different. My thoughts matter.
Every New Door is an Opportunity
It is the unexpected changes that lead us to appreciate what we wouldn't otherwise notice. It is in daring to take a different route that leads us to recognize our capability.
The Result of Action
Trying something without knowing is choosing to openly accept what comes. Without an expectation to narrow the vision, the possibilities are endless.

I Can Work with Anything
Without assuming control, situations are easier to flow with and learn from. Trusting that any circumstance can be handled, the opportunity to grow is always available.
Disability
Having a disability has been a great teacher in my life. It has been an adventure to understand what it means for me and to correct the thoughts that were planted at the start.
Blessings in Disguise

Under What Appeared to be Pride
Try not to judge what you don’t fully understand or have not lived. Beyond what is seen or can be measured are issues that must be faced with both heart and mind.
The Things You Look at Change
When my perception is in alignment with who I am, I can trust that I am living as I am meant to, even if the course changes along the way. It is my responsibility to determine my thoughts.
The Past Created My Present
What has passed isn't meant to be forgotten. No matter how an experience unraveled for us, it brought lessons and gifts that we hold in the present. Continuously take time to appreciate the gifts you hold within!
