You Are ENOUGH.

A note to the inner voice that wants to dim your light when you deserve to SHINE.

13
You Are ENOUGH.

To the person reading this, you are ENOUGH.

That brilliant mind of yours spins with ideas that excite every fiber within you. Yet that voice in your head says, "Don't do it, they won't like it" or "that's dumb."

Do it anyway. Be a rebel and show your mind whose boss.

After all, the only person worth impressing is YOU.

To the person who pulls all-nighters, works their ass off, and continues to grind day after day. Stop telling yourself that your lazy or unworthy when you take a day off to relax.

Take that day and run with it.

Do whatever feels right and know you deserve downtime.

When you feel small or like the world is caving in on you, know that you are not alone. From time to time, we all feel like we don't matter or life is too much for us to handle.

Trust your intuition in these times and know that you are ENOUGH.

To the person reading this that worries about what other people think about them, don't.

The older I get, the more I realize that life is too short to care about other people's opinions.

If it makes you happy, do it.

If it sets your soul on fire, go for it.

If you crave it, go taste it.

Brush off the haters and send them compassion. They only wish they could be as free as you are. Shine like the diamond you are, sweet thing.

Lastly, stop comparing your life to that of others. Nothing good ever came out of the comparison game.

You are bright, abundant, and beautiful exactly the way you were made.

How can you compare someones year five to your day one? It's toxic, a waste of time and a waste of your energy.

So go LIVE, EXPERIENCE, FALL, LEARN, and BE YOUR BAD SELF.

Don't worry about what the world thinks, continue to create a world where you thrive and you leave your positive mark on this world.

Everything you are and will ever be is ENOUGH.

Repeat after me, I AM ENOUGH.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
