- worlds I need to remember
- you are not late.
- you don't have to arrive on someone else's timeline.
- slow progress is still a life being built.
- the things you want are allowed to take years.
- you can be proud of what exists while still wanting more.
- there is no deadline for becoming the person you pictured.
- some years are for arriving. some are for building the road.
- you don't need proof that it's all going to work out before you begin.
- your life does not need to look impressive while it is under construction.
- one day, the things that are currently plans will simply be your life.
