Not too long ago, before my very eyes, a few words of
advice came alive in my life.
The words of advice were gifted to me during a
conversation with a mentor of mine. She
told me something that has helped me to this day.
This mentor was very instrumental in teaching me about
Christ all throughout my youth, and even today as an adult.
The words of advice are very sacred to me, but I
firmly believe that they can build self-love, so I’ll share them.
The words were, once you get older you start to
see things in yourself that you make a personal goal to “work on” or better.
It seems like a simple concept, and it is. But the most amazing thing about it is that
it can break down so many stifling complexities that we have in our lives.
Please don’t let these words go in one ear, and out
the other. Even if you do, I think that
at some point they’ll come flying right back into you, deeper than an
epiphany, more like a spiritual understanding.
To the introverts and shy, don’t let labels given to
you by someone else or yourself define you.
Look for your identity in Christ and then write your own definition
beside your name in the dictionary, and put your own favorite selfie
there. That’s not exactly how
dictionary’s work, but you know what, make your own dictionary too!
As for me, I’m still working on things. It’s a never ending cycle.
With a Sincere
Heart,
Unashamed
