Trust the Timing of Your Life: Embrace the Journey

Life is a series of unpredictable events, and sometimes it feels like everything is moving faster than we can handle. In these moments, it's easy to doubt ourselves, question our decisions, and wonder if we are on the right path. However, amidst all this chaos, there is one powerful notion that can provide solace and peace - trusting the timing of your life.
Embracing Life's Unique Rhythm:
From birth to death, each person has their own unique journey filled with highs and lows, triumphs and setbacks. It's essential to understand that every experience we encounter moulds us into who we are meant to become. Sometimes things may not happen as quickly or smoothly as we desire them to, but it's crucial to remember that timing plays an integral role in shaping our lives.
1. Patience breeds resilience:
Patience is a virtue often tested when life doesn't go according to plan. Instead of succumbing to frustration or self-doubt during periods of delay or difficulty, trust that these experiences are opportunities for growth. Each challenge you face builds resilience within you, preparing you for future endeavours.
2. Lessons hidden in detours:
The unexpected twists and turns in life might lead us down paths different from what we envisioned. These detours often present valuable lessons and unforeseen opportunities that would have remained undiscovered had everything gone according to plan. Trusting the timing means embracing these detours as part of the greater tapestry of your life.
3. Acceptance of divine intervention:
Sometimes things don't work out because there is something better waiting for us just around the corner. Trusting the timing allows us to believe in divine intervention – a force guiding us towards our true purpose and ultimate fulfillment. When doors close unexpectedly, have faith that new possibilities will emerge at exactly the right moment.
4. Celebrating personal growth:
The timing of life often aligns with our personal growth and development. We may not always be ready for the opportunities we desire, but trust that when we have grown enough to handle them, they will manifest in our lives. Embrace the journey of self-improvement and acknowledge that your dreams and aspirations are gradually becoming attainable.
5. Enjoying the present moment:
By trusting the timing of your life, you learn to appreciate the beauty in each present moment rather than constantly yearning for what lies ahead. Recognize that rushing through life only diminishes its richness. Find joy in the process, celebrate small victories, and savour every experience along the way.
Trusting the timing of your life is an act of surrender—a release of control over future outcomes. It allows you to embrace uncertainty, knowing that everything happens for a reason and at precisely the right time. By cultivating patience, accepting detours as valuable lessons, recognizing divine intervention, celebrating personal growth, and enjoying the present moment, you can navigate life's uncertainties with grace and peace.
Remember: Trusting the timing of your life means embracing both its challenges and triumphs because it is through this unique rhythm that you discover who you truly are and find fulfillment on your journey towards self-actualization.

Publishing has always been a fucking nightmare, but now it’s a layer of hell. It’s not enough that writers be good at what they do. Writers have to maintain an active social media presence and cultivate a following. Be available.
They have to be conventionally attractive enough to look good enough to see on a screen, aesthetically pleasing, kind, funny, up-to-date on trends, socially aware but not so controversial that they turn off a brand from California from slapping their discount code on a video promoting a book.
They have to do all of this with no media training, with little help from the companies that are supposed to be doing this for them.
Of course, a lot of this isn't possible for say, the 40-something mother of two who teaches English at a school and writes on the side. She’s boxed out of an already complex industry that already has enough walls.
On some level, I think authors have always marketed themselves a little, but we’ve reached such a crazy point where we’re demanding the author become the influencer. Accessibility in publishing has narrowed from an inch to a sliver. And that inch was hard enough to get in as is.

it really never was gonna be kendall actually. even if logan wanted him to be heir even if logan put him in that will even if logan underlined his name there was never gonna be a possibility where that jealous old bitch could ever give kendall the company willingly. the entire show logan hates kendall when he isn’t good enough to take over and hates him when he Is. he gets mad when kendall isnt worth giving the company to and he gets furious at the thought that kendall could ever have the company at all. he sat him down at seven years old and said one day this would be yours and i know in the back his head he knew he was fucking lying. that old man was never gonna give it up kendall really Did have to steal it or pry it out of his cold dead hands like No Goddamn Way did an orphaned logan who got smuggled in a ship hull to the home of an abusive aunt and uncle and built an empire out of nothing look at kendall in his princely thousand dollar vacation clothes eating a sundae as big as his face in the hamptons and think he genuinely wants this kid to have whats his.

i don’t know why succession discourse ends up falling along hard lines when the whole thing is that we know they’re irredeemable monstrous individuals but it’s good television because we have favorites and root for them anyways. those things are not mutually exclusive it’s human impulse to Understand and Feel for characters who are written well and with empathy, even as we intellectually fully understand they’re standins for real people who have fucked the earth. anyways kendall’s going to win and thus lose god bless waystar royco’s america 🫡🫡
