And I get that the road before you is uncertain.

There's no way to know exactly how life will unfold.

But that's besides the point.

A bird can't predict every gust of wind it's going to encounter.

It spreads its wings, takes off and adapts because it can, because it always has, because that's what it does.

I'm not advocating that you should have all the answers.

No, I'm suggesting that you trust yourself to find them.

To move forward into the haze that surrounds you, to make sense of the seemingly illogical, bring about reality from the make-believe.

Someday, you will have what you're aiming for.

But here's to never letting a today go by without realizing that you are always living out a someday from your past.

You are always arriving and leaving simultaneously.

The accomplished and the student crossing a finish line and on the starting block with another race around the corner, another chance to stretch your legs and reach for the heavens.

If you ever forget that, I ask that you find it within yourself to look over your shoulder, to remember what you once asked for, and to appreciate the journey that you have undertaken.

You did that.

Now onward you go.

You have more some days to bring to life.

Sometimes moving forward takes courage.

Like, a lot of courage.

Like, more courage than you even think exists within you.

But here's the deal.
