Late Night Thoughts

There’s SO many things I’ve always wanted to do or try and for one reason or another never did.

I often wonder how many doors I closed on myself or didn’t even allow to open. How many adventures, learning opportunities or careers did I miss out on? In short, it sucks but at the same time I think I understand now that maybe I wasn’t even ready for those doors to open or the opportunities to present themselves.

I think back to early 20’s me and I’m like…..girl you’re an entire mess, lol. I think in some way we all were, though.

So if you’re in your 30s, here’s to starting over, new blessings, opening doors and closing others 🥂. We got this!

If you’re in your 20s don’t let anything or anyone hold you back, even yourself. Enjoy yourself and don’t worry about things so much, remember you can always redeem yourself in your 30s.

... Read moreIn our fast-paced world, it’s common to feel overwhelmed by regrets, especially regarding missed opportunities. Many individuals in their 20s grapple with self-doubt and fear of failure, often closing themselves off from potential paths. Conversely, those in their 30s may reflect on these lost chances and realize that life is not a race but a journey of growth and learning. The transition from your 20s to 30s often brings a newfound perspective. In your 20s, experimentation and making mistakes are vital for personal development. Embracing failures as learning experiences prepares you for the more profound understanding of life in your 30s. It’s a time to set intentions, prioritize what matters, and fully embrace opportunities that come your way. Additionally, it is vital to remember that each decade presents unique challenges and blessings. No experience is wasted; every path taken or avoided contributes to the person you become. Self-compassion plays a critical role in moving forward. Instead of lamenting over missed chances, one should focus on the lessons learned and how they can guide future decisions. As you navigate through life's stages, whether exploring new career options, starting a family, or pursuing hobbies, keep an open mind and heart. The doors you thought were closed may just be waiting for the right moment to open. Allow yourself the freedom to grow, change, and redefine what success looks like for you. Celebrate your journey, acknowledge your past, and look forward to the possibilities ahead.

3am thoughts??? 💭
When you can’t sleep your mind is racing with thoughts of all the things you have to do. 1. I did not do my skin care routine tonight! “I’m trippin’.” 2. Realized that I didn’t drink enough water today. 😮‍💨 3. Take these twists down before this style gets too old. 4. What did I eat today?!

Some nights it’s just you, God, and the thoughts you can’t explain to anyone else. And somehow in the quiet…He reminds you that your life is still held together by grace. 🤍 “For from Him and through Him and to Him are all things.”— Romans 11:36 #ChristianWomen #FaithJourney #CozyFai

Being a mom sometimes is like having the weight of the world on your shoulders 😕 Did I make sure I signed her up for snacks? Do we have enough Christmas presents? Did I move the elf? Will they like the Christmas presents? Did we finish homework? When’s the next doctor appointment?

Late Night Ride = Therapy Vibes
The most relaxing but also stimulating thing is music. Music can be medicine for your heart. Singing can release build up trauma and tension. Add a car and the moon and you have a self-care gumbo. You could ride for hours and not realize. By the end of the ride youll be feeling lighter. #alonetime
