Sacrificing your needs for the sake of meeting others’ is a fast track to burnout. - Amber Lyon

Sometimes, despite our love and effort, things don’t grow to be what we would have liked – but sometimes they do. It’s not our job to try to figure out what’s going to grow and what will not. Our job is to stay open to pouring into our beginnings, even when we have been disappointed in the past.

When we wholeheartedly trust that life is always working in our favour, we can trust that the right people will always show up in our lives.

But not all paths are immediately clear, and although it’s scary to walk a path we’re not sure leads anywhere, that’s what life asks of us. To trust that we’re going to be ok walking in the dark.
