Dear Lovely,

What you want is on the way. 

I know. Easier said than believed. But what if I told you that working towards the life you want is better than doubting The Universe? Trust me. I’ve been there. It’s a constant struggle for me. Trust that is. And believing that what I want really is on the way. 

Don’t let doubt win.

In those infamous times of doubt, I look back and think of how far I’ve come. How much work I’ve put in towards finding that lovely life. It makes me grateful for the things I’ve gotten and it makes me humble for the things I’ve achieved. Don’t get me wrong though, at the end of the day, I still want what I haven’t gotten. Does that make us selfish? No. Just human. In fact, sometimes I feel like God’s forgotten about me. Have you been there? 

You’re not alone. It’s okay to feel that. It’s okay to get angry or frustrated about it. As long as you don’t dwell in it. Or talk yourself down. Don’t you dare say mean things about yourself. You’re better than that. I know that. You know that.

I think it helps to talk about it though. With a friend or your sister. If you don’t want to involve anyone, you don’t even have to socialize. You can grab a journal and write out why you’re frustrated. Who knows, maybe that inner voice will guide you out of your slump and into some grace.

Keep working at it.

What I do know is this–what you want really is on the way. How do I know this? Because you’ve been working your ass off for it. And you believe in it so much, even when you cast it aside. Because you are worth it and enough. And above all, you deserve it. 

So stop looking at your social feed and comparing your life. Wondering, when is it going to be my turn? When am I gonna get that win or that dream job or that amazing relationship? Stop comparing. Because what you want, is never the same thing someone else wants or even has. And those highlight reels? They’re just the surface. And my love, you’re deeper than that. There are greater things ahead.

So: Keep. Going.

What we don’t always see are the long hours, the breakups, the fights, the time it took to get there. Well, I have good news for you love, you are putting in the time and your victory is on its way to you. Consider this my crystal ball reading. Or just a positive affirmation for your life.

All you have to do is keep finding that lovely life. In the small things and the big goals. Keep working. Don’t you dare give up now. Because I’m not. And I’m right here beside you rooting for you. So let’s keep going. Together. 

Love,
