First of all, you write so beautifully😍

I'm entirely with you on the slow but steady process. The fast pace the world moves in can be overwhelming, and the pressure to move at that same pace worsens by the day.
Truly self-discovery is an excellent asset because once you know yourself thoroughly, it's easier to choose what to and what not to do and not feel like less of a person by letting go of trends or opportunities that everyone seems to be rushing into.

Not everything is for everyone and doing things that feel right for you saves one a lot of headache.
Like you, I'm moving slowly but I'm steady and we'll get to our destinations someday, that is if our journies of self-discovery ever ends lol
