“No one, myself included, ever considers that life doesn’t give two shits about what you planned for it. Mine certainly didn’t. Yet, there I was, beating myself up for not living up to those expectations I had set for myself as though my life’s dream board had caught fire. The mere thought of me not having reached certain milestones yet made me feel like it directly reflected on my successes in life. Therefore, I had to accept that this was my life—for now. It was nothing more than a resting place and not the final destination. And the only way it could have ever been the final destination as if I had chosen to settle there, and I refused to do that.” — Danielle Dexter
