All Of This Is Okay

I've had an eventful few weeks and am having to pause and regroup. It's a season of change and I'm along for the ride, hopeful that it will take me where I need to grow. Thanks for your patience and stay tuned <3

Connie on Ko-fi

[5-panel full-color comic page with a motivational message titled, "All of this is okay." Panel 1 shows a cartoon girl with a bun wearing a backpack, running frantically to get somewhere; text reads, "It's okay to slow down." Panel 2: She pauses to look at her phone, a worried expression on her face; text reads, "It's okay to stop and just be lost." Panel 3: She reroutes directions on her phone. Panel 4: She turns her head purposefully in another direction, course-correcting. Text reads: "You can regroup and find your way...as many times as you need." Panel 5, borderless: She walks in the opposite direction she was running and guesses matter-of-factly, "I think it's that way," as the frame pans out to show her companion, an elephant, turning to follow.

Its not just OK, its very good advice.

I've been doing just this recently and it helps, particularly slowing down.

Thanks, Connie

It's okay to Admit you're lost and ask someone for directions.

This is great! I like this a lot.
It reaffirms that all is part of the journey (mystery of life!!!!) - whether it seems okay or not in the eyes of the experiencer and others.
