The life I've been dreaming about for years is already here. Maybe the next chapter isn't about becoming someone new, but finally inhabiting the life I've created.
There’s a strange stage of ambition where the next upgrade isn’t adding something—it’s finally noticing that you’ve already built much of what you were chasing. “More of this” can be a much harder goal to recognize than simply “more.”
I loved this so much I read it twice!! Yes, the writing (as always) is so gorgeous, it's easy to get lost in the words. But mostly because I am so delighted that you, my friend, have not only built a beautiful life for yourself - but also that you recognize it. That you can celebrate that while it wasn't always easy, you did the work and created a home and a life that fills you with joy and peace. Of course you attracted the cute guy in the airport! How could he resist that beauty and confidence and strength?! And here is hoping that someone else comes along, as I am sure he will, to walk alongside you. Hand in hand. XOXO
