This Is For You, On Your Darkest Days

"You are plenty. You are enough. No, you are MORE than enough. Just by living, just by solely breathing, just by the soft and gentle beating of your heart, you are already enough." - Colleen George

“Let it all go with everything you have inside your chest, every piece of anxiety you’re holding on to and every ounce of anger you feel towards yourself along and the world. Just breathe it all out and let it disappear into the air.”

“Write everything down, pour your heart out in that journal and don’t stop until you feel free. Until you feel you’ve finally released all your thoughts and you can breathe easier.

Then light the pages on fire and watch them burn in front of your eyes. Forget about them. Let the thoughts go. Forgive yourself and move forward.”
— Becca Martin, You Need To Forgive Yourself(And This Is How You’ll Do It)

“It’s time to breathe easier and lighter. It’s time to set new goals and dreams and it’s time to truly forgive yourself for everything you held on to for so long. Forgive yourself for the missed opportunities and create new ones. Forgive yourself for the relationships you ruined and don’t let that happen to the new ones and if you can work on mending the old ones back together.”

“You aren’t going to feel like this forever. Life will hand you every up and down it wants to give to you. Life will shower you with kindness, and then will bring your world under a rain cloud that doesn’t stop for weeks. You’ll go from loving life to hating it through the years.

But don’t let life make you resent yourself.”

“You need to believe in yourself even when someone is against you. You need to stand up for yourself even in times of silence. You need to love yourself even through the difficult and long days that try to break you.”

“Don’t let life break down your spirit. And please, don’t let it take the love you have for yourself away. Don’t let it diminish the light inside of you.

Don’t let it drop your hope. Don’t let it break the faith that you have in yourself.”

“I hope you find your happiness, like I hope you are really, truly happy. Not a happy that you can put on show on social media, but a real happy where you find yourself smiling when you think about your life.”

“You are worthy of friends who love and care for you in the same way you love and care for them. Having friends that you can rely on and cry to when you are upset is one of the most valuable things in life.

You are worthy of a significant other who appreciates and adores you. It may take some time to find the person you are meant to be with, and you may have to go through some trial and error along the way. But never settle for someone who treats you poorly or who always thinks about themselves before you.

You are worthy of a family who loves and supports you, even when you screw up. Especially when you screw up. It may take some time and effort to build solid relationships with your family members, but it’s worth it.

You are worthy of your own self-love. Because there is only one you, and there are dozens of things about you that make you unique and beautiful.”

“You are so full of beauty and so full of strength. But in the darker times, you forget this. You feel broken and incomplete, scarred and frayed at the seams. Please remember that you must be gentle on yourself – you must treat yourself as you would treat your best friend, with caring words and nurturing thought. With delicate whispers of love and support. You are enough just as you are.”

“You see, even without trying, even with just breathing, you are already more than enough. You are enough even on the days when you rest. You are enough on the days when you feel ill-prepared to face the world. You are enough every. Single. Day.”

“Love yourself with patience. Life is not a time lapse. You have all the time in the world. Learn to be patient with yourself. It takes time to be where you want to be. Love yourself in a way that you will learn how to wait for its defining moment. In a way that you will allow delays, stopovers, and breaks. The kind of love that knows when you’re ready to fight or to quit. Love yourself in a way that you will understand that there will be times in your life where you’ll be good for nothing, times of victory, times of failure, times of struggle, times of breakthroughs – loving yourself with patience means knowing that you have your own timeline. You understand that you have your moments, your downfalls and you know that you should stay with yourself through all of it.”

“I hope that things start to look up for you, and I pray to see the day your smile is from pure joy... Some days you can feel so drained, worthless and unmotivated but others you can feel on top of the world, happy and brave. But what you always have to remember is too allow these feelings as it’s what makes us human. What an amazing feeling it is to still have a heartbeat.”

“You are not weak. You do not need to be taken care of. You do not need pity, or gentleness, or someone to carry you, or to hold your hand. You have the strength to stand on your own, the confidence to rebuild, the passion to continue, and the love to forgive.”

“Though the world may be pulling you down today, though you can’t lift the shadow from your eyes, though you are scared of the future, though you are broken, you are not weak.

So close your eyes, take a deep breath, and silently remind yourself of the person you are, of your incredible strength, and begin to piece yourself together again.”

“It’s time to shed the expectations that the world puts on you and make your own. It’s time to disconnect from toxic people that continually find fault with who you are. It’s time to pull away from relationships where you feel like you’re in a constant battle to be in that person’s favor.

It’s time to realize that you are enough. And you’ve always been enough.”

“Today, let there be a big, huge chasm between where you are and where you’d like to be. Identify it, examine it, and then find a way to let it inspire rather than horrify you. You’re in the process of becoming. And if you fail to acknowledge that you’re not where you’d like to be, you’re never going to end up somewhere better.”
