It has been a few years, but I reread these words tonight…
“You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You’re on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the one who’ll decide where to go…”
― Oh, the Places You’ll Go!
But tonight, these words don’t read like words just for graduation. Tonight, they feel like solid, everyday living words. I am reminded how often I have believed in words that felt life-changing and inspirational, but somehow, I missed living them out.
I wonder what words have slipped through your fingertips in this way. Words that you believed were powerful but didn’t entirely penetrate your life the way you had hoped.
It isn’t too late. Graduation was only one of the important days of our lifetime. I believe that every morning, we wake up with the same possibilities and opportunities as when we felt our whole lives ahead of us. It might look and feel a bit different, but the truth remains…“You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You’re on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the one who’ll decide where to go…”
― Oh, the Places You’ll Go!
Live with intention every day! ❤️ trish
