Enough

I am enough.

I’ve spent too long thinking I needed to do more and be more so I could earn my place in this world. But the truth is, I am enough as I am, right here, right now. My worth isn’t measured by my accomplishments, by how many people like me, or by how flawless I can appear. My worth is in my heart, in my resilience, and in the way I get back up when life knocks me down.

I am enough, because I bring my whole, imperfect self to each new day. I am enough, because I have a story that is uniquely mine, with all its messy, beautiful parts. I am enough when I am struggling, and I am enough when I am thriving.

I am learning to let go of the idea that I must constantly prove myself. I am letting go of the need for outside validation. Today, I choose to believe in my own enough-ness. Today, I remind myself that I am whole, just as I am.
