why is there such a push to celebrate the small wins?
well, first of all… life be lifin’.
we struggle.
we fall short.
we fail.
at the same time, we thrive, we survive, + we do some dope ass shit!
when life’s up, it’s stuck.
when it’s down, it can get downright discouraging.
you’ve seen yourself in a funk before… hard times, ainnit?
so, what can you do to rise above the “woe is me” attitude?
you work at it.
you keep moving.
you step back + see the bigger picture.
you assure yourself that you’re safe + okay in the moment (if you aren’t, call 911).
you realize you are human + our human experiences are riddled with ebbs + flows + it’s nothing personal.
you accept life for what it is + you keep fuckin’ going.
you do whatever it takes to be gentler, kinder, + more encouraging to yourself + others.
you celebrate what comes your way — good, bad, or indifferent (there’s always a lesson, fam. always).
’cause who’s not going through something?
shit, ain’t me + ain’t you.
we all are.
so why not celebrate the dopeness in your life?
celebrate where you are now.
you’ve come a mighty long way, fam.
that type of tenacity deserves some appreciation.
be you, be dope!
