We spend a lot of time on the special days, graduation, birthdays, special milestones, what about you. You are worthy! You are enough!Making time for yourself, that is a struggle, but just celebrate yourself. Post positive affirmations everywhere, use an entire post it packet. Forget huge things, glamorous things, material things. Just you, making it through the day, surviving. Life can beat you down, it can wear you out. Hey if putting on pants to meet the day is an obstacle, it’s worth celebrating!
Far too many people put the goal line way out of reach. Every foot forward is good enough. You know yourself best, you know your trials and tribulations, the significance to others is irrelevant. Some days getting out of bed to face the same demons is a win. The only one in your race is you. The only competitions are the ones you create. Life is not a bowl of cherries, it is not a box of chocolates. It is hard, sometimes painful and can feel like a recurring nightmare. Put your pants on one leg at a time.
Being alive is enough, the kids used to complain when we had to park a mile away at the mall, I hate being stuck in traffic. Be grateful, two feet and a heart beat. It is more than some people get. Seeing another day arrive, watching the sun set on a dismal day… but you got that day, even a crap day. You are alive, you deserve to be here, own it!
