DO YOU REALLY NEED TO BE TOLD THAT YOU ARE “ENOUGH”

Q: DO YOU REALLY NEED TO BE TOLD THAT YOU ARE “ENOUGH”
Admittedly, I am defiant to my core.
Admittedly, anger / fury SERVES me in some ways. (Costs me in some ways, too… of course.)
AND admittedly, I was raised by parents who cherished me, loved me, protected me.
So, I have never struggled with self-worth. I have never wondered if I was “enough.” Enough for WHAT? Enough for WHO?
but i am seeing this “reminder” A LOT.
If you NEED to be told that you are “enough,” then… woman, here you go:
you are SO enough.
But also… two things.
1) You are MORE THAN enough, for whatever you aspire to become, create, do, whatever.
and
2) AREN’T YOU PISSED that you have been WONDERING if you are ENOUGH????
do you ever get FURIOUS,
and I mean RIGHTEOUSLY INFURIATED…
to the point where your SOUL feels it is on FIRE with rage…
FURIOUS that somewhere along the way you were DECEIVED / DELUDED into ACTUALLY wondering if you are enough?
Do you ever hear the words “You are enough,” and think,
“UMMMM< DUH…
ENOUGH???
Honey, I am MORE than enough.”
Because you should. Because you are.
And because thousands of women came before you and did the HARD work that you now benefit from,
and because thousands more will follow in your footsteps.
And HOW DARE WE leave them a LeGACY of needing to be REMINDED that we’re “good enough?”
How
Dare
We.
WHO do we think we are playing so small, so timid, so NEEDY of affirmation?
Yuck.
We are better than that.
Collectively.
Individually.
Let’s MAKE IT A THING to be APPALLED that someone would think we need to be reminded that we are “enough.”
when we are…
in fact…
so
much
more.
