I am…

Serious.

Passionate.

Introverted.

Emotional.

Introspective.

And incredibly resilient.

And I love who I am.

Do you know who you are?

Do you love the pieces of you that no one else loved? That you were told were unacceptable?

Because if you don’t know you and love you, then tragedy and trauma will run your life and take your identity with it.

It will define who you are until you decide to fight back, to demand something better.

Please, don’t let someone or something else tell you who you are. Because the world doesn’t need two of them. It needs one of you.

Look everyone who ever said you “couldn’t” square in the face and refuse to give in. Because you can. And you are. And you will.

Then look at your tragedy and your trauma and take your life back.

You do not have to be a victim any longer.
