Worth It
Dear younger me,
As I sit here and reflect upon the years that have passed, I am filled with a surge of emotions and a desire to reach out to you. There is so much I want to share with you, but above all, I want you to know that you are worth of moment in this lifetime. Yes, you, with all your flaws, insecurities, and doubts. You are worthy of love, respect, and happiness, and being the ish!
I know there are days when you look in the mirror and struggle to see your own worth. You compare yourself to others, measuring yourself against impossible standards. But let me tell you, my dear younger self, worthiness is not defined by appearance, achievements, or external validation. Your worth lies within your very being, in the unique and beautiful essence that makes you who you are.
You have dreams, passions, and aspirations that sometimes feel too grand to be within your reach. But let me assure you, you are capable, you are deserving, and you are enough. Embrace your talents, nurture your skills, and pursue your goals with unwavering determination. Do not let the voice of doubt drown out the whispers of your dreams. You have the power to make them a reality.
As you navigate the intricate tapestry of life, my teenage self, hold your head high and embrace your worth. You have a voice that deserves to be heard, ideas that deserve to be shared, and a presence that has the power to make a difference. You are worthy of happiness, success, and all the beautiful things life has to offer.
So as I conclude this letter I applaud that you walk forward with confidence, knowing that you are capable of any and everything beyond measure. Embrace the journey ahead, believe in yourself, and never let anyone or anything dim your light. You are deserving, you are valuable, and you are absolutely, unquestionably worthy.
With love and unwavering belief,
Your Older Self
