I remember when I didn't know my truth, I remember when I didn't know who I was, I remember when I had no vision.
I look back on things that I've said and done that at this stage in my life I would consider phony.
I remember being afraid to hurt people so I allowed myself to get hurt instead. I didn't know at the time that while I was showing them love I wasn't showing me any.
I kept going through the same cycle with different people because I just didn't get it yet. I didn't realize the reason I kept ending up on the back burner was because I kept putting myself there. I didn't know that all of these things were simply because I didn't feel worthy, I didn't love myself enough to put Me first.
It took a lot of praying, soul searching, therapy, and self-awareness to help transform me into who God called me to be. I'm so grateful that I found me while also learning that self-discovery is a continuous journey. I didn't know all of the amazing gifts He placed in me to share.
I had to get out of my own way and learn to be more vulnerable--to stop being so shy and extremely private about everything. One day I realized I needed to share my story, my gifts, my passions, my ideas. Me in the fullness of it all! Just think how many lives you can touch by sharing your story, your journey to YOU!
I've always been a bit of an over thinker (or at least that's what I used to call it) now I just realize I had so many thoughts I needed to release, and my mind kept going and going until they were forced to come out!
So ... that's what I'll write about--my journey, my thoughts, my experiences, my perspectives--the old and the new ... Me Vs. Me.
