Success is a goal achieved,
Success is not the goal.
Goals are set by you and I
Others, for us, cannot define
what we choose to pursue,
and what we lose within pursuit.
The one who stands upon that jury
is you yourself, release your worry.
Though you’re your own most feared critic
you’re also they, that can forgive.
You are your own best frenemy
maintain that balance, live freely
and know that when you’ve done your best
you’ve done what can’t be by the rest.
Extracted from years of my life spent reading, writing, and studying, it is my vow that this blog will remain free of ads, at no cost to you. The years spent creating this space have been incredibly fulfilling for me, but also require a diligent balance of time and money. Most days you can find me waiting tables to make ends meet, as gratuity is the most compatible form of compensation with my spirit. With that in mind if my words have brought you any illumination, please consider a humble donation.
