Lift your head up, woman. Look at me in the eyes. This is for you.
Yes, you heard me. I am speaking to you.
You are beautiful and strong. Right now. Has anyone told you this today?
Have you said those words to yourself, even at your weakest moment?
Look at your own worth. Write down your accomplishments. Celebrate yourself. And not in some pretentious way. Make it count. Create value.
There is no shame in this skin of mine. There is no shame in yours. Yes, we have emotions. Yes, we are not perfect. Yes, there is envy. Yes, I compare myself to you. Yes, I am not always my best. Yes, neither are you.
It doesn't matter. At the depths of it all, you know your truth. And the truth is, you and I both, we are really, really epic.
This is what I want to tell you:
You are captivating.
You are brilliant and talented.
You've done so much, it is magical. You glow with the weight of it.
Without you, I wouldn't have much to strive for.
