Wonder and Transformation, Not Number of Pages Read

The beauty in reading isn’t in the stats or number of books/pages read. It’s always been in the beauty of the pages, in transformation, and in wonder. So whether you read one book or one hundred, I hope you found joy in your reading, and know that no matter how much or how little you read, the numbers don’t really matter.

Ember of Self-Love

And the answer came like a small ember: I did love that broken, “hateable” version of myself. And yes I was worth loving even then. And I was more than that failure, even then, when I was in the middle of it.

This small ember of pure self-love was something I’d never had before. That ember has since grown into a roaring flame.
