There came a point in midlife when I stopped chasing what clearly wasn’t mine.
When I stopped reopening doors that had already closed,
and began choosing peace over pressure.
It’s a quiet shift.
Not dramatic. Not loud. Just… lighter.
I no longer force connections.
I no longer beg for understanding or twist myself into versions I’ve outgrown.
I’ve learned that maturity isn’t about having it all figured out.
It’s about knowing what’s worth your energy – and what’s not.
It’s about trusting the timing of your life, even when it looks different to everyone else’s.
Midlife has softened me into trusting alignment over urgency.
And the things meant for me?
They don’t require me to beg, shrink or break.
Growth doesn’t always come with fireworks.
Sometimes it’s simply the decision to walk forward – with grace and with peace.
