Not complacent. Not apathetic. I’ve come to a place of surrender in my life. Not complacent. Not apathetic. I have reached a fully feeling, big dreaming, and pleasantly peaceful point in my life. I want all of what I dream of so bad, that I’m willing to trust the process that has been laid outContinue reading “I Surrender”

Pursuit of Happiness & The Life of Meaning
Originally posted on NOEMAYA:
