This year has taught me the simple craft of belief. I believe in the things I’ve nurtured and built this year. Slowly but carefully. Such as understanding, knowledge, passion, strength; the hundreds of songs I’ve written, the 365 poems, the books I’ve read and the miles I’ve run. The resolution to breathe, to meditate, to not harm my mind or body even when I’ve felt like it.  Charlotte Eriksson
About This Quote

This year has taught me the simple craft of belief. It has taught me to believe in myself and my ability to reach my goals. It taught me that it is okay to not get everything done that I want to do, but it is okay to have a plan and a vision of what I want. It taught me that while the world may be going in a certain direction, it does not have to be you. You can choose a different path and walk down it with purpose and passion instead of a spiritless, aimless wander.
