When it comes to things you are working toward, may you keep learning to appreciate the journey even before there is a highlight reel. Even before you are able to experience it all come together, may you know that the time you are spending right here, finding joy and welcoming courage, however you can, matters more than you may realize. Keep capturing the small things that are meaningful right here, even before it all comes together.
When it comes to the parts of a project that you just enjoyed researching, even if you don’t know how it all ties together, the efforts you’ve been giving are valuable in themselves. May you relish these moments of discovery, allowing curiosity to come alive in ways that will matter in the future, too.
When it comes to the moments where you find something small that you’re very grateful for, even if it seems insignificant in the grand scheme of things, may you recognize how these little joys accumulate to create a richer, more fulfilling journey. Let gratitude be a companion, coloring your experiences with warmth and appreciation.
When it comes to the milestones you meet, even if they’re not the ones you initially set out to achieve, may you celebrate these unexpected victories, recognizing that growth often takes directions you might not have anticipated, but it can still be beautiful.
Long before the highlight reel, let yourself embrace these moments as much as you can. – Morgan Harper Nichols
