You are still growing, even when it doesn’t look like it yet.
Roots first. Leaves later.
Most of the work happens where no one can see it.
The days that feel still are not empty, something is taking hold underneath.
You do not have to bloom on anyone else’s schedule.
You do not have to look impressive while you are becoming.

Affirmation:
I am rooted. 
I am becoming.
I do not have to rush what is already growing.

Thank you for being here.
Thank you for giving yourself a chance to grow.
