I am enough. I am loved. These are things that I know to be true, and yet sometimes it’s easy to forget them. I think this is true for all of us: we have these truths inside ourselves, but sometimes life gets in the way, and those feelings get pushed aside.

So today, let’s take a moment to remember that these truths about ourselves are still there — and can be accessed at any time.

You are enough.

It is important to remember that you are enough.

You are enough because you exist — and your existence is a gift. You are enough because you are here and now, through no fault of your own, and it’s an opportunity for growth, and growth isn’t possible without being here first. You are enough because you are a human being — and as such, we all have the same capacity for understanding, love, empathy, and compassion for others when they need us most.

You are loved; some people just can’t admit it.

As you grow older, you may find yourself in situations where someone close to you is unable to say that they love you. This can be especially hard if your parent or sibling can’t voice their feelings for whatever reason.
