Michelle Obama’s book “Becoming” is beautifully written and brilliantly insightful.

The best part? The title. Here’s why. ⬇

We look at Michelle’s book as the pinnacle of her life. She came from humble but loving beginnings, worked hard, clicked with a good guy, raised two terrific girls, and became one of the most admired women in the world.

The End. Of the book. Not her story.

Like Michelle, we’re always becoming.

Life isn’t static. Sometimes, in a seemingly perfect moment, we’ll say “I wish I could freeze time.”

Thank goodness we don’t have that superpower. It would keep us from growing, learning, and embracing new adventures. Otherwise we’d be bored and boring.

Becoming is a gift.
