Speak your truth and nothing else. Speak your truth to your self and to everyone else. Who you are, is who you are.
Be honest with yourself. Respect yourself, Love yourself, Trust yourself, Believe in yourself.
You must learn to do this all for yourself, before you can expect it from anyone else. When we expect it from others, we will most always be let down. It’s not up to anyone else to fix life for us, to make us happy. It is up to us to do it for ourselves. When we can learn to do this ourselves, we feel so much more fulfilled in life and in our purpose.
I’m a spiritual being and for so long I ignored this side of me because of what people would think. I was to scared to put myself out there, to share my thoughts, my learnings in life, incase I was the only one. Incase people judged me. Thing is, there will always be people who will judge you, who won’t agree with your ways, your thoughts, your beliefs, But what I’ve come to learn is that it doesn’t matter. While I held back, I wasn’t feeling fulfilled inside. If people feel triggered by someone doing what feels right for them, Then they could ask themselves, why it triggers them, what makes them cringe. If what I do is not for you, that’s totally ok. Im not hear to make anyone else happy, only myself. And I know, from doing, is that the more I share of myself, the more it does help others. So I will continue to be who I am, I will continue to share because it feeds my soul and because it may help someone else who needs to hear my message.
For once in my life, I feel sexy, I feel feminine, I like who I see, I’m happy with where I am, I like what I do. I have direction, I have faith, I have purpose. I have trust, I have believe in myself. For many years I didn’t. Whenever I didn’t believe in myself, My mum picked me back up. She believed me when I didn’t, She cheered me on when I didn’t She backed me when I didn’t. Now I have learnt to back myself. It was hard to move forward when I didn’t believe, trust or back myself, No matter how much my Mum cheered me on, It wasn’t coming from inside me. When I finally started to do it for myself, This is when things started to change for me, This is when the real growth in so many areas of my life happened. I thought I needed support and cheering from others to help me grow, Yet it was the complete opposite, I needed it from me first and foremost.
There are days, I wake up feeling not enough still, Wondering what to do next, where to turn next, Trying to find the strength to move just one step forward, Some days this can be challenging, But I’ve found that when I write, when I let go of yesterday, of the energy that is holding me back, When I write my purpose, my desires down again, this turns things around for me. When I read positive words, listen to music…this steers me back to the direction I need to head. When I photograph, I light up and my personality jumps out. Some days its challenging, but without the challenge, I wouldn’t appreciate the growth.
So again. Listen to your soul, Speak your truth and nothing else. Speak your truth to your self and to everyone else. Who you are, is who you are.
Be honest with yourself. Respect yourself, Love yourself, Trust yourself, Believe in yourself. ALWAYS!
