Achievement & fulfillment aren’t the same. I think I succeeded by traditional standards: career, stability, self-sufficiency. But I sacrificed parts of myself to get there: relationships, exploration, softness, and connection.

I’m broken & feel like success didn’t deliver what I thought it would

Longing for the past: It’s tempting to lose yourself in the “what-ifs” and “if onlys.” When this happens, I try to gently remind myself that the past is precious because it shaped the present. While I can’t return to it, I try to carry its essence forward by continuing to nurture the love shared.
