I woke up this morning with a smile on my face.

I’m a perfectly imperfect person, wonderfully flawed and chaotically beautiful in the most unique ways. When I started appreciating the parts of me that were awkward, messy and weird, I began to see the beauty of who I truly was. I stopped thinking I wasn’t doing enough, trying hard enough or being enough. I was more than all of that. I was being the best version of myself and I know now that’s all I can expect from myself. I may stumble out of the house with disastrous hair, dropping things as I go, but that’s just how I roll. I’ll never be perfect and I’m really, really good with that. I don’t want to be. I want to experience all the amazing moments of my life just as I am- I’ve worked hard to get where I am and now I deserve to celebrate how far I’ve come… Not beat myself up because I’m not where I thought I would be. I have time- there are always more tomorrows in which I can keep moving forward, working hard and chasing my dreams. My goals don’t have an expiration, so I don’t care where I’m not and what I haven’t done yet, but how I enjoy and learn from the journey. I know some people may look at my messy everything and shake their head..they just don’t get me. The thing is, the people that love me do understand and appreciate me- and that’s all I could ever want or ask for. So, forgive me if I don’t get caught up in what the world thinks of me, because I have more important things to do..like living a full life. Like being a strong warrior, Like having a loving heart of gold, Like having deep talks, beautiful moments and finding the joy in the little things all around me. Whether it’s a beautiful sunrise, a memorable song playing or the feel of a warm breeze in my hair.. I’m all in when it comes to making the most of my life, my moments and my journey. Maybe I’ll always be a bit of a mess and even sometimes not have a clue where I’m going, But I’ll always do it my way. My life won’t ever be built on perfection or being flawless, But on just choosing to be happy, Each and every day. I don’t know about you, But there’s not much more I could ask for than that. Because I’ll always be me..and I’ll always be enough. |ravenwolf
