A Love Letter

You are amazing, vibrant and full of life. Even if you can't feel it, I can see it. Underneath all the heartbreak, anxiety, depression and trauma is a strong, confident, vivacious, beautiful human! The universe is brighter and better off because you're alive! I’m so glad you were born.

My existence is so much better because of all the life around me! I mean it. Everyone adds a different beauty to the planet, and you are a significant one. 

Perhaps you have someone in mind and you wish they chose a different path for themselves. Sometimes we take turns in life that lead us down paths full of pain, shame and at times regret. Never forget the beauty of someone, especially if all you can see is what you dislike.

Back to you, amazing human. You are valuable and so significant. You benefit society. Your laughter is meant to be heard! You are daring. Take risks! Help your dreams become realities. Don't let the critics in your life continue to keep you down, or hold you back. You were born with a destiny on your life. There are many cheering for you. We want to see you become the most glorious version of yourself! No one but you can really make it happen. Sure, people who believe in you and want to see you reach your full potential can help, but you're the one who determines what will actually happen. So, what do you say? Will you put on your running shoes and get out there with me?! We can go slow. The big deal is to start moving. I appreciate a quote by Martin Luther King, Jr. that says, "If you can't fly then run, if you can't run then walk, if you can't walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward." For some it's not going to be putting on running shoes, but just getting up off the couch. Standing. Finding out your why. What's the reason, who's the person you can stand for if it’s not yourself yet.

You are seen. You are known. You are not forgotten or invisible. As much as that might not seem true living in this busy world filled with people staring at their phones, that's the truth. Let me say it again. You are seen! You are known! You are not forgotten or invisible! There's a powerful force of love always wanting to emphasize how loved we are.  It’s constantly affecting us, but we don’t always feel it because love is experienced more powerfully when we welcome it. If you find it hard to let love in you can take this opportunity to practice. Re-read what I've said and let it penetrate your heart and your mind. Allow it to come against any negative self talk that wants to derail my statements and twist them to say they're meant for someone else, not you. That's an ugly lie that I'm tattle tailing on!

You're an amazing human with a brilliant mind! You put your own unique twist on everything you do which is super cool and exciting! Don’t let the harsh, belittling words that have been said to you have power any more. Embrace the truth in this letter. Think about all the beautiful words people have said to you. Start letting that be your inner narrative. You are capable and competent!

Any time you hear a voice in your head saying ugly, belittling words meant to cause you to withdraw and isolate, stop it in its tracks and refute it with beautiful words that have been spoken about you. Words such as these. I am an amazing human with a brilliant mind. The world is better off because I'm alive! I benefit society. I am seen and known. I am loved! Now go and ask your friends, family, or whoever it is that loves you what they like about you. Absorb what they have to say. Return the favor when you’re ready. Go, share kindness with the world!
