You Are Enough

“Wanting to be someone else is a waste of the person you are.”

   Marilyn Monroe

    Self worth comes from within, it can’t be given nor is it defined by someone else’s opinion of you.  Others surrounding you will never be able to determine your self worth no matter how much their words have an affect on you. Always remember that you are worth more than the distance between your thighs, you are worth more than the amount of make up you have or don’t have on, you are worth more than the number of friends you have or don’t have. You are unquestionably worth more than the value you’ve placed on yourself because your worth is not a number or a scale. Your worth is infinite. It is unlimited, its boundless, its everlasting.

   Do not underestimate yourself or question your self worth. Your self worth is not determined by what is visible on the outside but what remains hidden on the inside. Others do not know how smart you are or how lovable you are just by looking at you. Others will respect and eventually learn to accept you once you show yourself that you are worth more than the labels others have put on you. Love yourself so others can love you; accept yourself with all your flaws so others can accept you, forgive yourself for your mistakes so others can forgive you. It all begins when you realize that you are just as wonderful as you wish to be because there is nothing about you that should be changed unless it’s for the better.  If there is something you should change about yourself that will make you a better version of yourself then go for it.

   With the series of events that have happened or will happen in your life, they cannot and should not decrease your worth by a drop because there are things in life that you cant control. Life is filled with undiscovered mysteries located around us, things we don’t dare question their significance because we are uncertain of their potential.

   Treat yourself the way you’d treat your newborn baby, lovingly, gently and affectionately. Don’t forget that you’re human too and you need love and affection just as much as anyone else. No matter how strong you appear to be, you still need someone’s affection to comfort you when you’re vulnerable.
