Growth
You don't measure a tree's growth by comparing it to the tree next to it. You measure it's growth by comparing its present size to it's past size. Likewise, don't measure your growth as a person by looking at someone else. Look at who you were and who you are now. Life is a journey not a contest.

I play tennis (badly) but when I play it, I play to improve myself and do better with each successive game. I am competing against myself, one might say, not the person on the other side of the court. The point is, life can be a contest (and a journey, and a destination, and any number of other metaphors you want to use), but it comes down to who are you competing against? If you are competing against yourself, that can be growth as well.

🥀 Yeah! No rush! I believe I'm better off on my own for now. When the right time comes and I feel ready to pursue another relationship, I'll definitely be open to it. I believe that when I'm truly happy with myself, I can bring happiness to someone else's life as well. 🥀

When you realize how beautiful and awesome you are, but still not enough for someone.
