Find Your Way Back

“Every human being has a true, genuine, authentic self.”
~Gabor MatΓ©~

Somewhere under all the noise, the roles, the version of you that shows up for everyone else β€” there’s the one that’s just you.

Life buries that person sometimes. Stress does. Old wounds do. Trying to be who everybody needed you to be does.

But buried isn’t gone.

The river’s good for that kind of digging. Slow down enough, and you start finding pieces of yourself you forgot you’d set down.

Thought for the Day
You didn’t lose yourself. You just misplaced you for a while.
