the person you want to be is part of who you already are. they’re in your goals, your atittude, your values, your passions, you words, and your actions. you’re just a younger version of them. and one day, if the path you’re set out on is the one you’ll stay on, they’ll look back at you proudly - proud of you for all the work you did, that allowed them to exist.
you are not an inferior version of a pipe dream. you are a being that is growing in accordance to their dreams - no matter how long it takes to bloom.
