I dont always feel like Im living the life that is an authentic reflection of the person I am.

And I dont always feel like I know myself.

There are times I dont know my worth.

This Is Me Finally Being Authentic

@sofls

I dont know what I deserve because I feed my fear over my confidence.

I dont know what Im capable of because I allow the noise around me to silence my voice.

I stay when I should leave because I think thats loyalty.

I keep toxic people in my life because I think thats what loving people actually means.

I do things I dont want to do because I think I am being selfless.

I dont say what Im actually feeling because I think Im choosing my battles.

There are times I dont love myself.

I dont love my gigantic heart because it gets me in trouble.

I dont love my over-thinking mind because it stops me from being carefree.

I dont love my body because of the barriers I project onto it.

I dont love my anxiety because I cant run away from it.

There are times Im my worst enemy.

I blame myself about things Im not proud about my past because I still struggle with being a human.

I get disappointed in myself when I fail because I hold myself to a standard.

I give up on myself when nothing is working because somehow Im convinced its my fault.

I let myself go when I feel so much pain because I simply dont know how to manage it.

Im not always happy.

Im not always grateful to be alive.

There are times I dont like where I am coming from.

There are times I dont have it together.

I question my faith because I feel like God has forgotten about me.

I lose my purpose a hundred times because following a passion is not a journey fixed.

Im not proud of what I do for a living because it doesnt reflect my potential.

I dont always feel heard.

I dont always feel cared for.

I dont always feel loved.

There are times I dont want to be seen.

I dont want to be honest about my beliefs because Im tired of being misunderstood.

I dont want to show my scars because people have used them against me before.

There are times I dont feel this world is my home.

I dont always feel a sense of belonging.

I dont always feel like Im living the life that is an authentic reflection of the person I am.

And I dont always feel like I know myself.
