“Life doesn’t require that we be the best, only that we try our best.” 

H. Jackson Brown Jr.

At the end of the day, we are only human.

We can strive for perfection, but as flawed and imperfect beings, we will never reach it.

And thats okay.

You learn nothing from being the best.

And you gain nothing from being perfect.

It’s through our process of trial and error that we find growth.

Our mistakes teach us what isn’t working, and point us in the direction of what will. 

They help us to discover new paths and friendships.

And they allow for self-discovery and exploration.

Our struggles provide us with the opportunity to be brave.

They open our eyes to our innate inner strength and resilience.

To the courage and determination that we never imagined we had the ability to harness. 

Our imperfect nature is not a curse.

It’s a gift and a blessing. 

“All we can do is make the best decisions we can with the best information we have at that time and place.

We can learn to rebound, reinvent, and regroup.” 

Just because you fall doesn’t mean you have to stay on the ground.

You aren’t weak or inept.

You aren’t a failure.

You’re a work in progress.

You’re a doing the best you can, and that is enough.

Don’t give up and don’t give in.

Stand up.

Spread your wings.

Take flight. 

You are more than capable.
