I just had to….
I gave up trying to be perfect a long time ago and it was the best thing I’ve ever done.
Trying to please all the wrong people for all the wrong reasons was the right choice for me.
I’m never going to be flawless, and I’m not going to try to be.
I’m a wonderful mixture of moods, emotions and charisma that is absolutely lovable.
Sure, I don’t know where I’m going most of the time and I don’t have a clue about why I’m in the mood I’m in, but that’s just part of my attractiveness.
Whether my hair and makeup is a mess- if I even remembered to wear makeup at all-or if I’m completely put together, I’m the same gritty, real and down to earth gal all the time.
I may cry at the drop of the hat or burst into laughter for no reason whatsoever, but I’m always authentic and genuine.
I own my flaws and celebrate my scars, because they tell the story of my journey, my failures and my history..
And I wouldn’t change who I am or where I’ve been for anything.
There’s a unique beauty in my brokenness and a distinct wonder in my gorgeous mess, just ask anyone who knows me.
Whoever really knows me always appreciates me for everything I am..the good, the bad and the silly.
Sure, I don’t have it together all the time, but truthfully, I don’t have to.
I’m fine flying by the seat of my pants and figuring it out as I go.
Maybe I get lost a time or two, but I always seem to end up where I’m meant to be.
It may not always be pretty, but it’s always true..just like me.
I know who I am and what I want, and I own every step of my journey- laughter, tears and all the other stuff in between.
I may not be who I set out to be, and I may not be the model person that everyone thinks I should be, but I’m an amazing woman that loves hard, lives fully and never gives up on her dreams.
If you ask me, that’s a pretty good way to be.
