It’s never too late to be who you want to be.
Today I needed to remind myself of these words from Benjamin Button in his letter to his daughter.
For what it’s worth: it’s never too late to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again. ~ From the movie: ‘The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button’

Great reminder that we are always in the process of becoming! I’m thankful for that!
Wow! So so love those words. Made me think about myself and if I am taking all the risks I need to be who I want. Thank you Corinne. Best thing I read today 🙂
How right you are Corinne. It’s really never too late. Even when you are a 100 you can become a rock star ? Not really. There is a time and place for everything. When is the tipping point between too late and just right?
True it is never too late.
I find it amazing how inspiration, motivation, positive talk are always around us but seeing them in the right sense needs an open mind to begin with. Or may be a lot of exposure. This quote makes a worthy message.
I needed this reminder. It’s such an empowering thought – that we can make of ourselves whatever we want whenever we want.
I believe that it’s never late to start something good. This is motivating too when I am down.
These words make me feel at peace. I needed to read them a couple of months ago. never too late, huh! 🙂
2 inspiring quotes but the line that jumped out at me was “I hope you meet people with a different point of view”. It is different points of view that helps widen our perspective.
I needed to read this. I needed to. Thanks for sharing ❤️
Corinne, our time is always Now for we are never too late. So true about life and remember last time a friend sent something else which makes so much sense. Today, I read your post. We often tend to believe that our time is gone but it’s never. Do read this:
Your Time Will Come!
Kenya is 2 hrs ahead of Nigeria, but it does not mean that Nigeria is slow, or that Kenya is fast. Both countries are working based on their own “Time Zone.”
Some one is still single.. Someone got married and ‘waited’ 10 yrs before having a child, there is another who had a baby within a year of marriage.
Someone graduated at the age of 22, yet waited 5 years before securing a good job; and there is another who graduated at 27 and secured an excellent employment immediately!
Someone became CEO at 25 and died at 40 while another became a CEO at 50 and lived to 90 years.
Everyone works based on their ‘Time Zone’.
People can have things worked out only according to their pace.
Hence, work in your “Time Zone”.
Your colleagues, friends, younger ones might “seem” to go ahead of you.
Don’t envy them, it’s their ‘Time Zone.’ You are in yours!
Hold on, be strong, and stay true to yourself. All things shall work together for your good.
Remember, U R NOT LATE
You’re very much On Time!!!
