Finding yourself

we never find ourselves.

We build ourselves.

The person that you imagine yourself to be, is the same person you see when you look in the mirror.

you don’t have to think about it, you can just live as that person.

The more you continue to live as your authentic self.

The more authentic, the world you live in; will become.

Don’t hold yourself back, you are who you are.

The more you hold back, the more you’re keeping yourself from being the truest version of you. There are levels to authenticity.

It’s the tale of the three masks. The mask you wear alone. The mask you wear with friends or family, & the mask you wear for strangers.

there is a way I want to live, and a way that I am living.

I am living according to my values, I jogged 3 miles today to pick up my groceries, I could’ve done it in one.

One of my dreams has always been to walk to the local farmers market every morning. To pick up fresh ingredients to fuel my body for the day.

Today is the beginning of this lifestyle, the start of a beautiful new chapter. Where every moment is precious, every breath is a blessing.

I’m not taking my body for granted. I’m massaging my muscles, stretching daily. I’m soothing my physical body the way I soothed my soul & mind. Focus on one area at a time until you no longer have to think about it.

My physical body is feeling loved today. My emotional well being peaceful, my mental state clear. My heart is full, but closed off to love.

I am slowly pouring more of me, into my cup, filling it up, patiently waiting for the day it overflows, into the cups of others.
