“If you are not courageous enough to take risks, you will accomplish nothing.”

Today, I am grateful for the courage to take risks. 

I am learning how to release the expectations of myself and my life that I’ve gathered from others and now believe to be my own. 

I accomplished letting myself sleep in and putting in a solid eight hours of work. 

I delighted in watching the rain and leaves fall from the comfort of my warm bed, and in finding the words to express myself in a way I think others will gravitate to.
