a reminder to take a step back

sometimes the world moves fast, sometimes too fast. for those obsessed with their craft or so fixated towards a certain north star or goal, it can be easy to get lost in the details of it all. we forget to take a step back and appreciate the little things that make life beautiful.

from having the privilege to pursue what you want, to being healthy enough to exercise. from friends who support your wildest dreams, to family that’s always there when you need them. from the morning coffee that starts your day, to the sunset that ends it. from random acts of kindness from strangers, to deep conversations with old friends. from the ability to learn new things, to the freedom to make mistakes. from the roof over your head, to the food on your plate. from the air you breathe, to the heart that beats.

we sometimes tend to oversee these and take them for granted. so here’s a reminder to in the hustle and bustle of it all, to take a step back and be present. because tomorrow isn’t promised. but today is here. make it count.
