Facing the Truth

-

 

Dear Me,

It's time to face the truth. The truth that you have been avoiding. The truth hiden behind the veil of unworthiness and preceived damage. As your soul.... I'm here to speak my truth....So here it goes.....

I just want you to know how special you are. You often look at yourself thinking you made bad decisions in the past. But you didn’t. You experienced situations that made you be you. We all make choices; some we love, others we hate. But that is not a direct reflection of you as a person. Your heart is pure. You do things from a place of love. You have always seen the best in people when others see the worst. You have always been the champion of the underdog because you know what it feels like to be the underdog. You wake up every day with an excitement of what the day holds. You spend your day filling people’s cups. Helping them see their value within themselves. You are the biggest cheerleader. You have always wanted to see people win. You never place judgment on an individual because you know that their experiences have created barriers, behaviors, habits and those things guide their decisions. Just as it has done for you.  Celebrate you. Celebrate what you have survived and learned. Embrace every part of you. Don’t just show the polished you. Show all parts of you. Your openness is your beauty. Your appreciation and gratitude for life is your badge of honor. When you look in the mirror look at the whole version vs looking at what you deemed damaged. There are parts of you that life did take a chunk out, but those scars made you whole. You are amazing. You are loved. You are appreciated. You are worthy. You are seen. You are heard, and You are understood.

Facing the Rage Within

-
 Today marks a pivotal moment in my journey. I stand at the precipice, facing the rage that has been simmering within me. It's time to confront it head-on. This rage, it's about me. It's about feeling like I should be further along, like I've endured so much and yet still find myself grappling with life. I'm tired of feeling unworthy, bored, and stuck in a cycle of misery despite the abundance of good around me. I'm enraged by my own expectations, by the relentless feeling of failure and the constant questioning of my worth. It's infuriating to sit in this place of stagnation, to play small and be the victim when deep down, I know there's a version of me ready to break free, ready to shine. Playing small may have offered a sense of control, but it's suffocating me. The version of me that's ready to go all in, to embrace my gifts and strengths, is pushing to the surface. She's done with waiting for the perfect moment, for everything to fall in...

What are you hungry for?

-
  Dear Me, Do you ever just ask yourself what you are hungry for? It's a question that often gets lost in the shuffle of daily life. We move through our days with gratitude, acknowledging the blessings we have, yet there's this persistent yearning deep within us. It's a hunger, a craving for something more. Sometimes it's as simple as a hug or a heartfelt "I love you," but more often than not, it's a deeper need that we struggle to identify. As we reflect on our journey, we may come to realize that our needs were often neglected in our formative years. We learned to prioritize the needs of others above our own, becoming proficient caretakers but forgetting how to care for ourselves. It's no wonder we find ourselves unsure of how to tap into our own needs now. Instead of addressing our hunger with mindfulness and intention, we often seek temporary fixes - indulging in food, drink, shopping, or overworking. These distractions may momentarily fill t...

Tired of the Fight: Finding Freedom in Self-Love

-
Dear Me, If I could be brutally honest with you, I'd say this: I'm tired. Truly, deeply exhausted. It's like my soul itself is weary, worn out from the constant battles, the endless cycles of giving everything I have only to watch it all crash down, forcing me to pick up the pieces and start over again. I'm just tired, you know? Tired of the fight. Tired of waking up every day and chasing after survival like it's some elusive prey. But then, in the midst of this exhaustion, it hits me like a thunderbolt: what I'm really craving, what I truly desire above all else, is freedom. I long for ease, for that elusive break that never seems to come. I feel like I'm wandering in the wilderness, just like the Israelites did after leaving Egypt. When will I finally reach my promised land? And yet, even when they reached it, they had to fight tooth and nail just to hold onto it. And then, in a moment of clarity, it dawns on me: my prison isn't some external force hol...
