Connect.

This was the one thing standing directly in front of me -barricading me, boxing me into my old life.

My old way of thinking.

An outright refusal to be seen; to connect.

There was a life abundant waiting for me—-but it was on the other side of my idea that I had to be a certain way//live a certain way// or have a certain past in order to be accepted and worthy of love and connection.

But here’s the thing–

we have to make the choice to just let people see who we are-to stop trying to fit unattainable, ridiculous molds in order to be good enough to love.

If you are your courageous enough to be your authentic self— the right people really will stick around, and God will put people into your life and on your path who you can grow with.
