An Island Summer

by Jenny Hale

“That’s calm we hear,” he said, his voice breathy like the coastal wind. “It’s what we all long for, even if we don’t know it.”

whatever’s going on in your life, calm is within you. Sometimes, you just have to wade through the deep waters to find it.”

Your dreams are just your future stretching out in front of you. It’s up to you to act on them.

“Find someone who sees you, someone who knows the greatness you’re capable of before you’ve even discovered it yourself.”

Just because you’re comfortable with something doesn’t always mean it’s the best.

Take any step as long as it’s the first one. And then take another one after that. The time will pass, whether you do it or not. Wouldn’t you rather spend your days walking than sitting still?”
