Have faith in the path you are walking. It might be different from others. It might feel like you are walking on thorns while others seem to be given smoother roads. You might feel like everyone around you is getting things easily that you have to fight for like a warrior. Some days, it might seem like your path is much longer than others', and that it's taking too much time, but even then, keep going at your own pace. Trust that you chose this specific path among billions of others because your soul saw something extraordinary, something rare, something that wasn't present in the others. There must be something in this path that your soul craved so deeply that even after knowing how many storms you would have to go through, it still decided to walk it. There must be something deeply fulfilling in this path that made you choose this discomfort over the comfort of an easier path. Keep walking until you find that hidden diamond you came here to discover. This is from the book I'm writing currently - "Bloom where you are" : )
