The Handbag That Reminds Me to Keep Going

This is my first time sharing this special handbag. 

I’ve kept it for sooo long because when I first received it from my dear friend, Fath, it was actually hard for me to look at it.

It reminded me of a time when I had to leave my comfort zone and honestly, I missed that comfort zone so much. The journey after leaving wasn’t easy. There were many times I questioned my decision and even felt “regret”.

But lately, when I look back at my journey, I feel genuinely grateful that I made that decision. I remember why I left. I remember why I wanted to move forward. And even when things were difficult and uncomfortable, I chose to keep going.

Now, this handbag reminds me of something I really need to remember:

Leaving your comfort zone is hard. But sometimes, it’s exactly what you need to grow. And yes… it can be so worth it. 

So, Fath, if you’re reading this, thank you for this little reminder that has stayed with me all these years.
