I seek to be humble and not judgmental

I try to look inward, like a self-cleaning oven searching out its own flaws. Yet sometimes I wonder if my pursuit of growth turns into arrogance because when I am harsh with myself, I become harsh with others too..

I notice I compare my path to others, even though I know I shouldn’t. Everyone moves at their own pace, and I don’t fully understand the steps they’ve had to take. Forgetting that makes me lose grasp of my own journey.

For this, I feel heavy. I remind myself it’s not my place to measure anyone else, only to reflect inward and keep working on myself. I cant look outward when there’s so much work still within.

I truly hope each person reaches their goals. I admire the effort behind every path. For me, I’ll keep striving for humility, patience, and quiet growth. Mute is the way of the walk.
