"Stop comparing where you’re at with where everyone else is. It doesn’t move you farther ahead, improve your situation, or help you find peace. It just feeds your shame, fuels your feelings of inadequacy, and ultimately, it keeps you stuck. The reality is that there is no one correct path in life. Everyone has their own unique journey. A path that’s right for someone else won’t necessarily be a path that’s right for you. And that’s okay. Your journey isn’t right or wrong, or good or bad. It’s just different. Your life isn’t meant to look like anyone else’s because you aren’t like anyone else. You’re a person all your own with a unique set of goals, obstacles, dreams, and needs. So stop comparing, and start living. You may not have ended up where you intended to go. But trust, for once, that you have ended up where you needed to be. Trust that you are in the right place at the right time. Trust that your life is enough. Trust that you are enough."

So I really wanted to preserve my 4,000th post for the 30 day drawing challenge (which I know, was ages ago) but I feel like this sort of has a place in itself.

I turned twenty years old today, and like most birthdays, I don’t feel older, or wiser, or more mature. I feel like me, and that’s how I hope all my birthdays feel like in the future.

But I do want to note how happy I am to spend another year with people I care deeply about and them likewise, how much I can reflect on how I’ve grown over the past year, and what new goals I can set to better myself.

I feel ready to start this new chapter in my life and I want to thank everyone who has ever been involved in it and wanted nothing but push me further in a positive direction. Moreover, I am excited to see what this year will bring — and, for once, I’m realizing that I’m excited to grow. <3

So I don’t think anyone really follows this or not ~~but I’ll pretend that everyone does~~

But today’s 30 Day Drawing Challenge is going to take a lot a lot of time, and I actually kinda want it to turn out good.. so I’ll pair it with tomorrow’s, okay?

~~I’m sorry I don’t want anyone to think I’m slacking it’s just been a really really busy day~~
