carrot cakes
One day we’ll thank wikiHow for being part of our journey. We knew it wasn’t going to be easy, but we kept showing up with a lazy smile on our face and a head full of ideas. We stuck around long enough to see ourselves succeed. To reach for the stars, if you will. We’ll share tips on how we kicked fear in the ass. Maybe even host one of those TED Talks we love so much. We’ll tell our audience about those memorable carrot cakes in the middle of winter and our 3 AM revelations. We’ll talk about these days with love and tell whoever is listening that it was hard, but it was worth it.
We’ll be thankful for all those learning lessons that led us to that place we ought to be. You know, the place where unicorns fly high and rainbows decorate the streets. We’ll be grateful for the taxi cab meltdowns and the “what should I do with my life” inquiries. We’ll reminisce about those long walks that led to some pretty motivational pep talks and thank the little twin-size beds that hosted our dreams. We’ll thank heartache, loneliness, and second-guessing for leading us to the promised land.
And once we get there, we’ll say things like “Oh Dahling, that’s so exquisite” and probably spend summers in remote islands we can’t pronounce. We’ll host charity galas and donate our paychecks to saving Pink Dolphins and. We’ll become our very own SHEroes.
But until then, I will treasure each moment (even the not-so-good ones) and keep our carrot cake days close to my heart.
