i wonder how many of us need to hear that.
“you’re okay”
“you are enough”
you’re okay is becoming a kind of new mantra for me. i’ve spent the last year in a fog, and i’m trying to figure out alot of things. my weight? you know, i don’t look so bad. i may have a few extra kilo’s but i still look cute darnit. my career? i have alot of things inside of me that will come out in all due time. my parenting skills? no one ever said it’d be easy, but i try my best every single minute of the day.
i wonder how many people need to give themselves a break, too. that the stress & tears are not worth the result if the result is built with stress & tears. there has to be a better way to live our lives without giving a part of ourselves away like that. our confidence, our love for life.
i’m purposefully pulling away from a few things, to make room for projects i’m excited about. i want to go back into taking more photos (not with my phone) and i want to make my life as simple but as directed as possible.
i want to show myself that just being me, and no one else, is enough.
