One thing my mom has instilled in me over the years is the power in “moving forward” - not ON, but forward. You can’t change the cards you’re dealt, but you can learn how to play them. How to move in this crazy world despite the weight you carry. How to find some sort of happy in every hour, even when it feels like you’re living day by day. Truly September saw more tears than I thought possible. But in between couch cry seshes & questions about the “why”, it also saw celebrations, & successes, & connection, & comfort, & these tiny little moments where nothing mattered except what was right in front of us. I’m choosing to fill my heart w these highlights because every day won’t be a win. But if you celebrate the small ones along the way, the bad days get just a lilll bit better. Thank you to my ppl for always giving me the space & support to feel it all — you are all as beautiful on the inside as you are out & sooooooo freaking special 💎
