I’m a people pleaser by nature. I don’t think there is anything wrong with trying to make others happy. The issue for me is often I make others happy at my own expense. There are things I used to do. Or at least, now, I’m a bit aware of them. I say yes when I should say no. I do extras when I should be resting. I don’t speak up. I feel guilty for taking time for myself. I second guess my value. Did you read the last one? I end up second guessing my value. My worth. And in that I let myself down. My value is that I don’t need to make everyone else happy all the time. My value is that it’s okay that I make mistakes. My value is that sometimes I say no. My value is that sometimes I don’t have the answers. My value is that I know taking care of my heart is important. My value is that I speak up. My value is I know when to walk away. My value is I try hard things. My value is I don’t let fear win. My friend, maybe this is you too. You have value, you have worth. You are enough. It is time you look in the mirror and are proud of the reflection. Your reflection. You are wonderful. You are worthy. You are enough. -Rachel #findingjoy
