To The Person Who Thinks They’re Not Enough.
An Internal Monologue from someone who knows what it’s like, this is what you’re probably thinking:
You’re not worth it. Why try? You will only fail. You’re ugly and stupid compared to the hundreds of other people at this school. You’re not skinny enough. You’re not buff enough to be considered masculine enough. You have a stomach pudge. You’re too flat to be considered a girl. You’re too short. You’re too tall. You’re not pretty enough. You’re not hot enough. Looks are everything.
You’re a virgin? How lame. You’ve had sex? You’re a slut. You’re not smart enough. Your laugh is weird. You’re not funny enough. How do you even have friends? They probably think you’re annoying. You will never be on a high enough level to be worthy of friendship, happiness or love. If you just disappeared, nobody would care or even notice. You have too many problems. You are weak. You’re insecurities and fears will always drag you down so just let them. You don’t know what you’re going to do with your life. Just give up. You will never be successful. You can’t be loved. You will be forever alone. If you haven’t found someone now, you never will. You aren’t special enough. It sucks to be you; You will never be enough.
Okay. That’s enough.
To The Person Who Thinks They’re Not Enough.
An External Monologue from someone who knows what it’s like, this is what you really are:
You’re worth it. Always try. You may fail at times but that’s okay; everyone experiences failures. You’re a beautiful soul and are an intelligent person living amongst other people with the same amount of potential as you. Your body is your body and you need not worry about your size or height or how you look to others. You are pretty enough. Looks aren't everything. On the inside, we are all the same.
You’re a virgin? That’s fine! You’ve had sex? That’s fine too! Either way, you have nothing to be ashamed of. You are smart enough. Your laugh is so contagious! You might not realize it but you make others smile at your unique personality. Your friends are your friends because they admire you and want to be around you. You are so worthy of having friendships, happiness and love. If you disappeared, so many people would notice and care and worry about you.
You have problems? That’s fine! Everyone has their own battles that they are facing. That makes you stronger. Everyone has their insecurities and fears. You can only keep pushing through and keep fighting them. Who cares if you don’t have a three-year plan? It’s not like you have 20/20 vision (pun intended). The best part about life is that it’s so unpredictable! It’s full of twists and turns. You’ll succeed in the end though it may take time. Never give up. You are loved. Don’t worry about finding a significant other! They’ll come around when it’s the right time. You are so special. It’s amazing to be you; You are more than enough.
