I hope you remember

I hope you remember that each path you’ve taken was the right one. That each perceived mistake you made wasn’t a mistake at all. That every new idea made you interesting, not sporadic. That every wild dream made you beautifully full of hope, not naive. That all of your demons didn’t make you weak, but made you strong. That your courage to bare your soul made you brave, not too much. That your willingness to jump into your goals and dreams didn’t make you too impulsive, it made you wildly passionate.

That your layers make you someone worth knowing. 

I hope you remember that every piece of yourself you picked apart and scrutinized are the pieces that make you, you. 

That these pieces make you someone worth knowing.

I hope you remember to love every part. Every mistake. Every quirk. 

I hope you remember that nothing you’ve done has been a failure, because you have found the lesson to be learned. 

That every path, every passion, every choice — they’ve brought you to you.

Passionate. Brave. Full of hope. Interesting.

You.
