Don’t know if you’ve noticed, but life pretty much unfolds at the pace it chooses. The river of life just keeps moving us along, no matter how much we try to fight the current.
There are so many times when we desperately want something to happen to us or for us. We want things when we want them. And yet, life pretty much unfolds at the pace it chooses.
Often we’re pushing ourselves to change and grow in awesome ways, yet what we’re striving for still doesn’t happen on our schedule. Life pretty much unfolds at the pace it chooses.
So we do what we can to expand our world, to grow ourselves, to live the life we’re dreaming of.
And in spite of that, sometimes we still find ourselves wishing things could happen differently, come together faster, or just plain change.
This is when it’s especially important to respect the process. Respect the time that life takes to unfold. Respect the time that you take to become who you are growing into. Respect the pace that the universe chooses. Even when it’s uncomfortable.
Know that you’ll get where you’re going.
You see, sometimes we need to be brave. Sometimes bravery means accepting where you are and realizing it’s not where you want to be yet but that you’ve done all you can for that day to get where you’re going. And trusting that you’ll get there.
Trust yourself and where you’re going. Trust that the mighty river of life will take you where you’re meant to be.
Respect the process.
