You've made it this far

Instead of thinking, "It's still not enough,"
let's tell ourselves today, "You've come a long way."

There are nights when we count all the things we couldn't do and end up blaming ourselves.
There are days when we compare ourselves to others and feel like we're the only ones falling behind.

But when we look back,
the days we cried, the nights we stood still, and the time we took detours-
all of it has become a precious path leading to who we are today.

This song is a gift for you, who's walking through each day with all your might-
"a song to acknowledge how hard you've worked and gently let yourself rest."

Focus on the times you got back up, not how many times you fell.
Focus on the path you've walked so far, not the things you couldn't do.

It's okay not to rush toward tomorrow.
Just for today, let's be kind to ourselves.

Place your hand on your chest and whisper these words to yourself.

"You've come this far."
"You've really done your best."

Tonight, may this song stay close to your heart
and serve as a little respite as you head toward tomorrow.
