A short love note

Be kinder to yourself.

You are doing a great job. You’re doing your best. You’re learning, you’re evolving and becoming. You’re absolutely normal.

You are hard on yourself. So many of us are and that is okay. You have high expectations for yourself, ideally you’d like perfection (wouldn’t we all) and you push yourself more than you probably should.

Here’s a hard truth,

Being human means to be imperfect.

It means to make mistakes.

It means to go through changes, seasons and hard journeys.

It means to fail.

However, it always means to love.

Being human means to love and to be loved.

It means to fall and stand back up each and every time.

It means to soften in the hardest of times.

It means to travel through the toughest of storms even though you’d rather run the other way in fear.

It means to have fun, laugh and feel the joy of life itself.

It means to have incredible wins.

Being human is complicated.

It’s a huge challenge.

It’s also widely beautiful.

This is your reminder to be kinder to yourself, be more gentle and have more compassion.

Have more respect for yourself, more belief and more trust.

We are all doing our best, including you.

You are loved,

love yourself.

love,
