Letter to My Ten Year Old Self
I am the version of you who overcame. I am the version of you that is currently healing. I am the version of you that didn’t let the pain become me. I I wanted to tell you I love you. I wanted to tell you that you are enough. I wanted to tell you that you have a purpose. I wanted to tell you you are not what happened or what will happen to you! I wanted to let you know that you are not your present, past, or future, but you are what God called you. I wanted to tell you the pain will be worth it. I wanted to tell you that I am healing for us, for you, for our family. I wanted to tell you it was for a purpose. I wanted to tell you that God loves you. I wanted to tell you to keep your head high.Â
Â
I want you to know that what you do from here on out may be rooted in pain, but you are going to change. You are going to heal those versions of you that were broken. You are working towards loving people. Don’t give in to life’s circumstances. You will always overcome because you are strong. You can’t be broken, so do not wallow in your hurt. Push forward. You can heal. Never let any battle deter you from walking your path. Take a break if you must, but keep going! You are beautiful. You are smart. You are worthy of love and blessings. Don’t worry because I got you! God had you in every season of your life, whether you felt him or not. It happened for a reason, and you are still God’s child. You are still pure!
Â
You will change your family’s generation. You will break generational patterns. You will heal areas no one has touched, and because of that, suffering will be there. Grief will be present. Loneliness will stop by, but you will forever be protected, cherished, and loved by God. Despite the pain, keep going. It will get brighter, and so will you. I love you!ÂVoting is closed
