To me, you’ve always been more than enough! Your environment conditioned you to act on demand, denying you the liberty to explore your true self.

I remember how you felt like you constantly had to perform, to be what others expected, always chasing approval instead of your own quiet joys. That feeling of being invisible, not truly seen or heard, crept into every corner of your mind. It made you shrink, made you doubt the very spark that was always inside you, just waiting to ignite.

You’re like the tiny firework that everyone laughs at in the beginning, but once your flame is lit, SPARKS FLY! I know all too well about life’s struggles–like overlooking what’s right in front of you. It’s hard to stray away from your comfort zone when the struggle was all you’ve known.

IT WAS NEVER YOUR FAULT, I JUST THOUGHT YOU SHOULD KNOW!

Trust me, I get it. Implementing the change was your desire, but fear of trusting yourself held you back. You constantly thought about the worst-case scenario, but never thought things could actually work out. You were so used to being invisible that even you were blind to your many hidden talents.

For as long as I’ve known you, you’ve always been a fighter. The best kind of fighter, though, because you lead with your heart above all else. You take the time to feel things deeply, and you’ve become a safe space for the people that matter most to you.

If you ask me, I think you’ve been too hard on yourself. You’ve been through a lot, so it’s okay for you to fill your cup up first. You were never selfish; you just reached your breaking point with selfishly, entitled people. I recall the sting of betrayal and how hard it was to trust again after feeling let down by those you held dear. But even then, you learned how to open up again.

I know you’re tired of your abandonment issues being triggered by people you trusted. But you learned how to pick yourself back up and try again. Just think about it; you’ve made it through every bad day so far, so why not envision the life you’ve always dreamed of?

No one in this world can walk a mile in your shoes, and your existence alone is proof enough of your strength. People always show up for you in the nick of time because of who you are and not what you can do for them. Life has dealt you some bad hands, but you are a great person. I think that’s AMAZING to possess that much strength and resilience.

So be sure to tell yourself that you’ve always been enough! You are and always will be the light in every dark place! The purity of your heart is remarkable. Your sincere intentions. Your patience. The loyalty you show. Your honesty. Staying true to you was the answer all along. Inspiring others to live in their truth while loving themselves fully in the process! You’re the best kind of person to know and love in all stages of life.

P.S. – You’re the main character. ACT LIKE IT!
