It's not like I am sitting still, but I am not sure how far I am getting.

Maybe 'progress' isn't the sacred thing we make it out to be. Maybe it is just our collective ego's way of showing off?

You get a lot farther taking imperfect steps than taking none at all.

If we lived more from the person we would like ourselves to be and less from the "ideal" that others would like to experience us as, I suspect we would be lying a whole lot less, and liking ourselves a whole lot more. It takes a lot of effort to defend something we're not.

I hate when my mind is empty and swimming at the same time.

The mistake people make is in believing that things will stay the same. An even bigger mistake is wanting them to stay the same.
