We need people like you in this world.
I am proud of you for being this person in this world.
The way that you love others is inspiring.
Paolo Raeli
But I am proud of your heart.
There is something really beautiful about meeting someone who makes you believe in the goodness of others.
I think it is beautiful to be the kind of person who cares.
To be the kind of person who stays open, who believes in going deeper.
Because we need souls like that.
We need people like you in this world.
I am proud of you for being this person in this world.
The way that you love others is inspiring.
You do not need to apologize for how your heart exists here.
There is courage in being the person who connects.
There is bravery in staying open despite what you have been through.
You should be proud of yourself for loving.
just dont ever stop.
No one comes out of this life unscathed.
And I am sorry that you went through things that crushed your spirit.
I am sorry that you went through things you did not deserve.
I am sorry that people were not always kind to you.
I am sorry that life took those you cared for from you.
You did not deserve the things that happened to you.
You were weathered by life in ways that would often defeat most human beings.
Other people treated you in ways that couldnt have been easy to hold within yourself.
And yet, here you are.
And Im proud of you for that.
It takes a lot of courage to do the hard work.
It takes a lot of courage to heal yourself, even when it hurts.
It is never easy this kind of growth is always messy, and difficult.
But I am proud of you for believing that you could do hard things.
At the end of the day, we are not bulletproof and unphased by life.
That is not why we survive, that is not why we keep going.
But I just want you to know that I understand.
I am proud of how hard you are working to heal and grow.
Right now, you may feel like you are behind.
And I know that society often tries to convince us that we have to be perfect to be loved.
But that isnt true.
You are real, and not perfect.
Who you are in this moment is worthy.
Sometimes we forget that the present moment is something to be celebrated too.
Even if it isnt exactly how we thought it would look.
I am proud of you for who you are.
You are worthy in this moment.
You are exactly where you’re gonna wanna be.
You have overcome so much.
You have healed so much.
Be proud of who you are, in this moment.
If no one told you this today I am proud of who you are becoming.
Sometimes, we need to be reminded that we are deserving of everything we desire from life.
That nothing in our past makes us unworthy of our future.
I see how hard you are trying.
And I want you to know that I am proud of you for that.
You deserve to believe in a future you have yet to feel.
You are deserving of good love.
You deserve to find something that feels soft, and real, and pointed.
You deserve to be someones favourite thing.
You deserve to feel like you do not have to apologize for the way you care.
You deserve the kind of love you give to everyone around you.
You are deserving of happiness.
You are deserving of the kind of happiness that exists on your own terms.
Nothing that you have been through has made you unworthy of living a life that brings you joy.
c’mon dont ever forget that.
Do not question the good that comes into your life.
It was meant to find you.
This is your reminder that the things you want in life are valid.
The way you want to love and be loved, is valid.
The dreams you have are valid.
The goals you have are valid.
Your healing is valid.
Your happiness is valid.
You have so much potential within you.
You are capable of so much.
And I am sorry that the world, at times, has tried to convince you otherwise.
But you are going to do great things.
You are going to become the person you are working towards.
I am proud of who you are becoming.
And you should be, too.
