Persistence & Patience

"By living in my purpose and by living in my calling, I feel like I did have an effect on the people around me, but I have to say it's taken me almost my whole lifetime to have the confidence and to be able to do the internal work. It hasn't been easy. I've faced many challenges, many dark things, many things that make me go why me, why am I facing this challenge? But as you keep facing challenges, and you have to get up and move forward, and you want to keep your light, you start understanding that there is a home base that's internal, that's inside of you, and only you can find it and only you can hold it. It's taken me my whole life, and I don't feel like I've written it to where I wanted to go, but I'm still writing it, I'm still here."
