Also featuring Kristen Bell & David Whyte]

permission

Give yourself greater permission
to simply be who you are.
No need to judge or apologize
for the way you're made.

idealist

That "ridiculous" voice --
what if you're meant to follow it?

chill

more

actually may not equate to better here

?

Is it possible
that the learning you're meant to experience
can't be found on a perfect path?

unexpected

This is certainly not where I thought you'd lead...

boxes

Life can't be boxed in.

And neither can you, my dear.

Embrace the complexities that lie within.

efficient

Have you noticed? That often isn't
what's best or most effective for you.

mood board +

that voice

There's a voice that questions your significance daily.
You wish you could get rid of it.

But you need not fear that voice.
You need not beat yourself up for its presence.
You need not try to squelch it.

Listen to the stories of people you meet.
Savor the writings of others past and present.
You'll see its presence within them too.

Maybe we're not meant to get rid of the voice.
Maybe it's part of the fabric of this human life.
And maybe, just maybe, it's a sign --
you're connected to everyone else and fully alive.

optimism

What if you choose the foolishness
of thinking more beautiful things are to come?
What if you let yourself be crazy in that way?

It may not unfold per your predictions,
and yet, you may find goodness still...
richness that required foolish optimism
to get the party started.
