Whatever our goal, it’s important to remember that we can’t rush the process. A seed planted today will not sprout a towering tree by tomorrow. Though it may feel like nothing is happening at first, the seed must grow roots down into the earth before it can pierce through the surface of the soil. As we walk our walk and follow our path, there will be ups and downs, blessings and setbacks, gifts and challenges. By gaining art form or skill set, we grow stronger over time. We cultivate deeper awareness and patience. So the next time you feel uncertain about where you’re headed or you think it’s taking too much time to get there, remind yourself that every tiny step is part of the process. Every small and dedicated act is nudging you forward. #IAMROOTED
