Are you lost


Feeling lost is part of the journey—it’s not the end, it’s a signal. Life doesn’t always go in a straight line. Sometimes you wander, sometimes you stumble. That’s not failure; that’s learning, growing, living. No matter how far off course you feel, you are not alone. Everyone goes through moments of confusion, of questioning, of wondering where to head next. These moments aren’t signs of weakness—they’re invitations to discover new paths and deeper strengths. One of your greatest guides is your own intuition. If something doesn’t feel right, trust your gut. That inner voice is there to protect you, to warn you when something or someone isn’t meant for your journey. Listen to it—your instincts are wise and they will help you find the path that feels true. Don’t let distractions or comparison steal your belief in yourself. The people who seem confident and certain? Sometimes they’re just using that as a cover, hiding their own feelings of being lost. Everyone faces crossroads, everyone struggles. It’s part of being human. If someone makes you feel small, step back. Recognize that their words or actions reflect their own battles, not your worth. Don’t waste time on negativity—it doesn’t deserve your energy or your spirit. Remember: you matter. You are loved—often beyond what you can imagine. Even when it feels like no one understands, you are held by a world bigger than you know. Kindness, care, and connection are out there. You just have to look up. Trust yourself. Listen to that voice inside that says, “Try again. Take one step.” When you feel lost, you are actually searching—and searching means you’re moving. Movement is hope. You are never really lost. You are never really alone.
