• homestretch • I feel at this very moment I am so close to my goals and aspirations. Being completely independent is exhausting but amazingly exhilarating. It has taken many years but I am finding true happiness by enjoying the process and remembering to have fun. In these terms I am already successful and no goal or end result will change how each day I can continually find my own bliss. I still strive fully, and harder than ever before, but I am learning how to pace myself and work smarter. Realizing life is about duality and balance, I know I also must embrace the dark times and suffering as well. I know there is light, not just at the end of the tunnel, but everywhere. Sometimes we are the only thing that is blocking it from getting through. Let love shine through. Peace ?? . Photo by @codyfolkes .
