❝ YOU. ARE. LOVED ❞
"It's a wonderful new day today" - these are the words that i think to myself every morning, they are sort of my daily routine to make my day seem better. I'm sure people out there would definitely disagree, some people are in situations where the light that should be dominant in their day is unreachable or it's so far out of their grasp that they give up.
I know that often I've felt like this, like I was alone in the world, like i didn't quite measure up, that I wasn't beautiful enough that I wasn't adequate. THAT. I. JUST. DIDN'T. MAKE. THE. CUT
and that just ain't right !
In my 17 years of life, I've seen things that people would find unimaginable, i've experienced feelings that should never have to be experienced... but 'thus is life'. I know, most people are probably like 'pfft.. she's 17 what does she know' but seriously, if age is a dominant factor in portraying who is more knowledgable, then this generation SERIOUSLY needs to wake up. (okay getting to my point soon)
It is amazing and yet mostly scary, how many women as well as men suffer from extreme cases of anxiety for being WHO. THEY. ARE, it's scary how many women aswell as men feel insecure for being who they are. It's even scarier the outcomes that come from this, depression, eating disorders, suicide.
It's due to these feelings of uselessness that i've lost so many people that are dear to me, which is why MY choice was to rise about it. When the people around me were falling, i chose to be their to help lift them up. When the people around me felt unloved, i would be the one to be their friend and love them. The oucomes of this you my ask. I was able to see an extremely depressed and prone to self harm and suicidal friend.. rise up, seek help and in the process find God. Through countless prayers, and through love from friends and family she was able to make it through her struggles. So i guess, even though this post doesn't express it well.. all i'm trying to say is that no matter who you are, where you come from, the situations that you are in and although you are a complete stranger to me.
i love you
and you are beautiful
because YOU are made in my Fathers image
and you have a purpose.
so have no shame in being
WHO. YOU. WERE. MADE. TO. BE
i know it may seem weird for some chick on the internet to say that, and believe me i'm not some randomly weird person. I just believe that LOVE brought us here and through all the situations that we have to go through it is LOVE that will set us free. :)
