📖 Story Text
I grew up thinking adulthood was a destination, a map you follow to safety, but what it really is feels more like survival sometimes—a stretch of days where you learn to ration energy, negotiate boundaries, and keep going when the script falls apart. And then, unexpectedly, there's a parade. Not the polished floats on a Saturday, but a quieter, stubborn parade of small triumphs: a kettle that whistles on time, a conversation that doesn't end in regret, a plant that refuses to die. Those moments line the route like confetti, turning survival into something celebratory, messy and honest. I want you to notice that the rituals that keep you upright—making soup, checking a message, showing up—are not just maintenance, they're the banners and flags of a life being lived. So when the night feels long, remember that somewhere ahead there will be a little procession of light, each step proof that you are, in your own way, parading forward.
