You have permission to feel the way you feel. Whether what you feel is accurate or not, you're feeling. You're allowing people and events into your life. This is good. This is beautiful. Please, don't stop.
You have permission to screw up. All of us live a life of trying to balance. We get distracted, we work too hard, we run into glass doors because we're took busy looking at our phones. Stop beating yourself up over your mistakes. Say your sorry, forgive someone, forgive yourself. Once you've wiped the tears from your eyes look forward and start walking.
You have permission to dance a ballad with the ghost of your past. They will always be apart of you. Whether your memories are good or bad they played a part in who you are today. You loved them, you hated them, but in the end you grew. Give yourself permission to dance a song of gratitude to this person, you wouldn't be where you are today without their influence.
You have permission to be angry.
(I need to write this again)
You have permission to be angry.
You have permission to take risks. Even if rejection is almost guaranteed, take it. Your value is not weighed on the number of people who reject you. Only you have the power to weigh your value.
You have permission to be vulnerable, to break the rules, to cry, to laugh, to dance, to run, to write, to listen, to talk, to think.
Stop thinking you do not have the right or freedom to be who you are, because you do.
Don't be afraid to give yourself permission to do something lovely for yourself, to say something that boost your ego. You deserve it. Your opinion matters. It's ok to say positive things to yourself. Maybe that should be the first thing you give yourself permission to do.
Imagine the weight of believing your own positive words and learning to pour them onto yourself. Just imagine the ripple effect that could have in your life.
You have a God who gives you freedom everyday, knowing it could be used in the wrong way. Yet, he thought it worth while to give it to us anyways. Lets not go another day wasting this beautiful gift.
Give yourself permission to live in freedom. It's worth it.
