Broken girl..

Broken girl..

I know it feels like the world continues to run you over. When you think it can't get any worse it does. Those days eventually will cease, and the light will begin to show itself again.

Broken girl.. I know how bad some days you want to give up. You continuously debate on if being this broken is even worth staying here sometimes. You practically scream our for help.. yet no one hears you. You choose to stay, because something in your conscious tells you there is more to your story. You lose sight of all the good you have done in your life. All the smiles you have given people. The slightest difference you have made in so many peoples lives. You are so loved, even when you don't realize it.

Broken girl.. I know your whole life you have been told you were hard to love. Your dad leaving you shattered first. Dating boys who didn't understand you or see your worth. Taking more and more of you piece by piece. You continue to chase this idea of what you think is 'love' as it continues to rip you apart. Until one day you realize loving yourself is more important.

Broken girl.. I see you working hard, getting better, choosing self care, and repairing all the parts others have broken of you. It's hard as hell. But you're doing it well. You look in the mirror seeing progress. You smile because you never thought you would start to feel normal.

Broken girl.. you learned to love yourself. Placing each piece back carefully so you seem a lot more together than you actually are. It's an art really. You're finally happy. You're finally getting where you want to be.

Broken girl.. your truest friends are your soulmates. You know the ones I'm talking about. They root for you in your success. They encourage you to continue on this positive road because they believe in you so much. But they also wipe away your tears when all you want to do is shatter again. They remind you giving up is no option. They help hold the bond together. Their love for you in genuine.

Broken girl.. you have learned to love yourself. You have learned that being broken is okay. That this is apart of your story. This is YOU. You view life differently. The light in your life is becoming more apparent. You have learned so much about yourself when you chose to focus on you. Life becomes enjoyable.

Broken girl.. unexpectedly now you have met someone. A man. One that you thought only existed in movies or fairytales. One that chooses the broken girl, because he sees the potential in you. He loves every broken piece, and never intends to break the progress you have pieced together. He shows you love, they way you should be loved.

Broken girl.. you will be whole again. Years from now, you will know the exact moment that last piece will fit perfectly and your life will all make sense. You are everything they told you that you weren't. You are now whole.

To all the broken girls. Here's the hope you were looking for today,

Xoxo ❤️

It’s everyone’s favorite time of year. Christmastime is a celebration, but have we forgotten what we are supposed to be celebrating? There is a reason the holiday is called Christmas. Not presentmas. Not Santamas. Not Swiftmas. Christmas.

What many people forget is that there is no Christmas without Christ. Not only is this a time to spend with your family and loved ones, it is a time to reflect on the blessings we have gotten from Jesus. After all, it is His birthday.

Recently, an article on Total Sorority Move called 23 Things My Boyfriend Better Not Get Me For Christmas, was going around on social media.

I would like to represent the girlfriends out there who disagree with her standpoint -- the girlfriends who would be more than happy to receive any of these gifts from their boyfriends.
