Permission

Wading through the muck of internalized blame, I stumble across a fault line, where the light breaks through. Old patterns are breaking up. My worth is not tied to how others feel, I realize. I am not the Queen of Everything.

For the umpteenth time, I tell myself: I am enough.

Permission granted to follow through on that knowledge.

Permission to write, paint, and imagine are the gifts I gave myself when chronic illness hit - a fair exchange: being for doing. Relevance is an attitude. Humour essential.

  1. You are more than enough to everyone you meet and everything you do. You can’t please all the people all the time and why should you especially for those that don’t appreciate you.

  2. I was at a yoga studio near my sister’s house and the sweatshirts they sold said, “You. Are. Enough.”
    and then reading your post reminded me of how inspiring that was to read. Sadly the message of the world is often that we need to be more (or we are not enough – and I like how you said queen of everything – hmmmmm)
    cheers to being enough
    and great post, VJ
