I attract amazing souls into my life.
I have sold myself out for the approval of those who don't really care about me.
I struggle with sitting with myself in my darkness and remembering I'm enough.
I extend and open myself to others... That burns me quite regularly-I extend anyway.
I'm a gallon love person - sometimes those I love are quarts or pints - I'm still a gallon anyway.
I have inspirational angels who lift me up, dust me off and help me fly.
I'm a boat rocker, and some people are afraid of getting wet.......I'm a boat rocker anyway.
The places in me that have been shattered I've let light shine through.
The places in me that have broken, heal stronger.
Forgiveness doesn't mean I let someone all the way back in, some parts of me remain closed to them.
I am strong and can take a lot, but I too have limits.
I have gifts that I took for granted, I have dimmed my light to not shine too bright... I'm learning that my bright light may help others out of their own darkness.
Avoiding the pain lets it fester, leaning in lets it dissipate.
Leaning into joy makes me vulnerable -I'm learning to lean in anyway.
Not everyone appreciates who I am-I'm learning that I'm an acquired taste that doesn't suit everyone's palette --yesterday I sold myself off for their approval---
Today I'm me anyway.
