Myth Debunked; You are Good Enough!

Something in which I've come to learn about over the past year is a very common myth that I believe we all turn to and think about, dwell on, or are even convinced by from time to time. This myth that I'm referring to is that voice in your head or maybe even a physical person that tells you that your not good enough. We all know what it feels like not to be accepted in one way or another and being honest, not being accepted, not being wanted, maybe even someone tossing you to the curb and seemingly replacing you with someone they feel is "better" . This hurts and while every person experiences it and therefore feels it differently, I think it's safe to say we all know that hurt somehow. Tonight I want to debunk this myth of not being good enough. First of all, I don't care who you are or what mistakes you've made or where you are in your life right now. YOU are GOOD ENOUGH! Every person on this earth is here for a reason and no person has the right to tell someone else any different! I know saying this won't keep it from happening, but my hope is that after reading this, it will be engraved in your brain that you aren't only good enough, you are valued, you are beautiful and you are worth it! You are worth time, you are worth effort, and you have a God given right to live your life knowing you are loved and wanted. People will try to tell you different, but by doing so they don't get to drag you down, they are only pulling themselves down. If someone tosses you to the curb and seemingly replaces you, please don't blame yourself. Look at it this way, if someone does that then it isn't your loss, yes it will hurt no doubt but that's because your human and as humans we feel things. If it's that easy for someone to say goodbye then let them because as much as it hurts, they weren't meant to be in your life and I can promise you, I may not know you but others do and the not only the people who do know you, but the people who will in the future, they will love you. You will find your people who build you up and know you for who you are, the people that support you and fight for you, and honest truth, sometimes we have to lose people in order to make room for the ones who will soon mean the most. You will find your people, but first you need to not only find yourself but know yourself, so please above all tonight... Know that you are worth it! Know that no matter what your mind says, no matter what other people say, you are good enough! You are amazing! You are here for a reason and you have the right to live your life with the knowledge you are loved and wanted! And in case someone hasn't told you tonight, I may not know you but your a creation of God and therefore I love you and so do a million other people, sleep well knowing that tonight <3

 I feel there is something not talked about enough, everyone knows the feeling of failure. We all make mistakes, comes with being human, we all cope with that. How though do we cope when unplanned mistakes take place, I know your wondering what on earth I mean by this, most mistakes are unplanned… I am referring to the mistakes, the trials that occur even when the “rules” are followed, those that incur even when perhaps we have done everything right that is within in our power. This takes a different type of coping, paired with an even greater understanding and matched with yet a greater perspective. In order to cope and heal from these unplanned mistakes we need to evaluate what was within our control and what was genuinely not. Often times when things go wrong we immediately blame and criticize ourselves because let’s be real, that is much easier than accepting the unknown and accepting the true lack of control we had over the situation. It is facing this fact though that allows for

Defining Life Through Choices

 Life is a crazy thing, what's crazier is how we each define the course we take through it. Often times we categorize our lives by the bigger more obvious choices, for instance taking a job, going back to school, getting married, having children etc. If we created a road map of our lives on paper it would likely consist of big landmark choices. Is it truly those big choices however that sum up our lives? Is it really those land mark sized choices that got us where we are today and propel us further into the future? I'd like to argue that they are not. Every day, every moment we are faced with choices, big and small choices. Perhaps the most seemingly miniscule choices are in fact the most monumental. When you start your day, what thoughts do you allow into your head? How do you nurture your mind, body and soul when you rise and when you begin to settle down for the day? How do you choose to interact with those around you, how do you speak to them? How do you speak to yourself,

Write Your Story

 It’s been over a year since I have last written and I can honestly say it has been quite the year. Writing is an outlet unlike any other, it creates doors to inspire, uplift and change. Perhaps the lives of others may change by the words you place on paper, however I believe the real change happens in the heart of the author. Whether it be fiction or nonfiction or a mix of both, putting the words on paper in a way that betters those around us and potentially those we will never meet aside from words meeting eyes, that changes you. It allows healing, growth, and a change of perspective on life. If there is one thing I have taken from the last year, it is that we are all the author of our own stories, we all have tales dying to be told inside of us, fighting to be born into paper. There is nothing in life that a change in perspective and a plan cannot conquer, we are only as limited as the limits we put on ourselves. Change stands directly in front of all of us, the question is not if i
