Find joy in the journey.

I bumped into this lovely wall paper from Pinterest of course.
At that time I was in the trenches. I was in the midst of a huge personal crisis.
Nothing seemed to make any sense. I felt useless.

My whole existence hurt. I would wake up, get out of bed and sit like a guest who just arrived on earth. Not knowing where to start and how to even go about my way around life.

I logged out of all my socials, my social batteries had died. Totally. In case my phone rung, I would stare at it in horror. I was beaten. Ten times harder than I could usually handle.

And then one day, I figured I needed to make sense out of everything, and I couldn’t just find the right words to describe the whole process. But it was simply “find joy in the journey”.

As awful as everything felt at that time, there was definitely one or two things I could be grateful for. That’s how I started getting my bearing back.

I love the quote, I am a sucker for quotes.

This wall paper has honestly carried me through the toughest of times and the other day while I was changing it, I genuinely felt so ungrateful. But again the holidays are here and I just want to be fully present and that means even with my wall paper. I mean it is still part of finding joy in the journey right?
