I’m not where I want to be.
Not yet.
But here’s the thing—
I’m not where I was either.
Yeah, I’ve had setbacks.
Life hit me with its storms,
left dents in my plans and cracks in my confidence.
I’ve been knocked down,
more times than I’ll ever post about.
But every time, I’ve stood back up.
Wiped the dust off.
Took a breath, even if it shook.
That’s progress.
That’s strength no one can see,
but it’s there, alive in every step forward.
This moment, right now—
it’s not the finish line.
It’s not the highlight reel.
But it’s enough.
Because in this moment, I’m still showing up.
Still moving,
still trying,
still here.
And that’s what matters.
You don’t have to be at the top to keep climbing.
You don’t have to have it all figured out to keep building.
You don’t have to feel “ready” to take the next step.
Your comeback doesn’t start when everything’s perfect.
It starts in moments like this—
when you choose to keep going,
to keep believing in your future,
to keep fighting for your peace,
even with the weight of yesterday still lingering.
This moment is your launchpad, not your limit.
Your small steps today are the proof that you’re not done.
You’re a step closer to the life you want,
even if you can’t see the finish line yet.
Breathe.
Take it in.
Remind yourself that you don’t need to be further along to be proud.
You don’t need permission to celebrate the ground you’ve already covered.
This moment is enough.
Because you are enough.
And your comeback is already in motion.
