You Are Enough
We live in a world where a person's worth is measured by appearance and certain achievements. From time to time we find ourselves questioning our worth, wondering if we are smart enough, good enough, mature enough, beautiful enough, strong enough, and the list goes on.
There are times when we face rejection and hurt and these doubts will start to creep in; ”maybe if we worked harder, looked a certain way or achieved more, we would be worthy”.
The truth is simple, you are enough, just as you are. It might not feel like it at this exact moment, but I promise you, you are, right now, not when you land that job, lose or gain that weight or acquire a certain amount of possessions. You are enough in your struggles and triumphs, in your highs and lows, in your flaws and strengths, you are a whole, deserving individual and that is more than enough.
So take a breath, strip away the noise of expectations and embrace yourself as you are because you always have been and you always will be, ENOUGH.
All my love,
Jhoye From MANI
