Bloom Where You Are Planted

What if I told you that this exact moment is exactly where you are meant to be? Good or bad, happy or sad, no matter the triumph or struggle there is a purpose in this very moment.

You need to bloom where you are planted. You need to grow through what you go through.

Those who are feeling good about life are probably like, “Hell Yeah!,” and those who are struggling or stuck, probably just gave me a giant eye roll and thought, “What other advice have you got?

To the eye-rollers, the purpose of this moment may not be clear now but it will be revealed to you in the future. It will eventually make sense. You just have to have faith and trust at the moment you are there for a reason.

Sometimes it really sucks. I have been there. Watching a loved one succumb to an unfair and early passing with nothing to do to change the trajectory, I get it. What may give you some hope is that when you do learn that lesson and have that clarity moment it will be all the sweeter. You are actually at an advantage over those who have it made. It is much easier to appreciate the sun after a rainy day, than living in a world where there are cloudy days.

During my dark times, I leaned on faith and believed I was given that storm for a reason. That my suffering had a purpose. Now, standing on the other side of that storm, I get it. There were many lessons about life, strength, purpose, and resilience that came out of those dark days. I have taken them and carried them forward. Simply trust that you are planted at this moment for a reason. Even the most beautiful flowers have to grow through dirt to feel the warmth and light of the sun once again.
