The Belief that I am Good Enough
The one thing I cannot live without is the belief that I am GOOD ENOUGH.
Before I realized I was GOOD ENOUGH,
life was much harder,
days much longer,
problems much bigger
AND worries much more suffocating.
Before I realized I was GOOD ENOUGH,
My voice was much quieter,
My writing much softer,
My movements much slower,
AND my relationships much more superficial.
BUT
When I finally realized I am GOOD ENOUGH,
My work was much harder,
My goals much clearer,
My dreams much bigger,
AND my faith much stronger.
My independence much more obvious,
My self-control more satisfying
My anxiety less daunting
AND my future more amazing.
I am a very skeptical person,
I do not believe in much,
But if you ask me what I believe in,
I say I believe in the belief that I am in GOOD ENOUGH.
And I believe in the belief that you are GOOD ENOUGH.
And I believe in the belief that no one can tell either of us that we are not GOOD ENOUGH.
