@re-joyce 1 August 2025 more from that month

I’ve been so busy searching for what’s missing, that I nearly missed what’s here. I’ve already caught a few stars my younger self only dreamed of holding. In the quiet moments, I realize, I’m living answers to prayers I once whispered in the dark. Not everything is perfect, but not everything needs to be. Some of the chaos I carry today is built on a foundation of dreams that came true. And maybe it’s okay to rest for a while, to be proud of how far I’ve come, even if I’m not yet where I want to be. Because somewhere between then and now, I became someone my past self would look up to.
