Everyone needs to be told, “it’s okay”.
It’s okay that you failed your tests.
It’s okay that you’re nervous on your first day at work.
It’s okay that you’re finding it hard to make friends.
It’s okay that you didn’t get promoted.
It’s okay that your old friends are traveling the world and you’re still stuck at home.
It’s okay that you can’t buy that pair of red shoes.
It’s okay that you’re not yet where you want to be.
It’s okay that you’re hurting and haven’t moved on.
It’s okay.
you will be alright.
You’ve got days and weeks and years ahead of you to make things better, to do stuff that make you happy.
It might not happen as soon as you want it to but it will.
Accept the fact that good things take time and as long as you work hard for it, it’s not impossible.
Right now, tell yourself it’s okay that you’re taking time because when that moment comes, it will be worth it, just be happy.
