When a child tells you what they want be when they grow up, a lot of the times that’s exactly what they came on Earth to do. It’s important to nurture this desire, rather than attempt to destroy it.
Document your life, very well. Write down your feelings. Take pictures of the things that moved you. Archive yourself. Let them know that you were here, that you existed, that you lived. Despite it all.
When life starts to get good again, you should allow it. You don’t need to stay loyal to your suffering like it’s a badge of honor. You can simply let the good things happen because you are a good person and you deserve it.
Someone will adore your awkwardness. Your little quirks will be what they fantasize about. Your humanness is incredibly endearing and it’s nothing that you need to change.
Your love never goes to waste. Even if someone puts it to the wayside. Your love is energy. The universe sees the love you give and doubles it. It never goes to waste.
I knew I’ve fallen for you when I imagined you tagging along in the places I’d venture alone. Only you could be more alluring than solitude and the wisdom that arrives within it.
This next part of your life will require you to be mindful of self-sabotage.
You have always been deserving of an abundant life. You have always been enough.
