sometimes, i’d feel restless, watching my friends go on far ahead of me… I soon realized that their pace was not my own. What held me together during those times was a promise I made with myself: “to take it slow.” I’d go at my own pace, steadily. if any of you feels lost in the face of doubt or uncertainty, or the pressure of starting anew, don’t rush. take a deep breath. you may find that any moment can be turned into an opportunity. allow yourself to take it easy. take it one step at a time
