Nothing here

Lately I’ve been realizing how much time I spend worrying about the future, playing out conversations and scenarios that never even happen. It’s exhausting trying to plan everything when life has its own timing. Maybe we don’t need to rush or have it all figured out by a certain age. Maybe life isn’t a race at all. We just need to keep moving, even slowly, and trust that things will unfold the way they’re meant to.

Sometimes life doesn’t turn out the way we planned. We lose people we love, we make mistakes we wish we could take back, and we end up in places we never expected. But maybe that’s okay. Maybe the point isn’t to have it all figured out, but to learn how to live through the chaos, find peace in the middle of it, and keep going even when it hurts.

This morning I realized that happiness isn’t something waiting at the end of a goal or a milestone. It’s right here, in the moments we often overlook. Sitting at home with family, laughing over a simple card game, or just waking up early and breathing in the quiet. One day we’ll wish we could come back to these ordinary days, so maybe happiness is just learning to notice them while we still can.

Some days it’s hard to find a reason to keep going. You try, you fail, you pick yourself back up, only to fall again. It feels like everything you’ve built keeps slipping through your hands. But maybe the point isn’t to reach some perfect ending. Maybe life is just about learning to live with the ups and downs, finding peace in the middle of the mess, and realizing that even when it all feels hopeless, the story isn’t over yet.

I couldn’t sleep tonight. Something I overheard made me question if I’m falling behind in life, if I’m supposed to have more figured out by now. But maybe we’re not behind at all. Maybe we’re just living life at our own pace, trying to make sense of it one day at a time.

Lately I’ve been wondering if happiness is something we ever truly find or if it’s just something we keep chasing. I used to think it lived on the other side of the next goal, the next relationship, the next version of myself. But maybe it’s already here, in the quiet moments, in the stillness, in learning to be okay alone. Maybe happiness isn’t something to find, but something to feel right where we are.

Lately, life’s been hard. Some days it feels like I’m just stuck, trying to figure out how to keep going when nothing seems to work. But even through all the chaos, I’m starting to realize how lucky I am to still be here, to breathe, to see the sun, to have another chance. Maybe that’s enough for now.

Lately I’ve been trying to stop forcing things to happen, people, plans, even the idea of where I should be in life. I’m starting to realize that maybe things don’t need to make sense right now. Maybe I just need to slow down, trust the timing, and let life unfold the way it’s supposed to.

I’ve been overthinking everything lately. The past, the future, and what people expect from me. But maybe it’s time to slow down and just trust that things will fall into place. I don’t have all the answers, but I’m trying to believe that what’s meant for me will find me when the time’s right.
