A few years ago I had a choice to make..I was run down in every way imaginable..physically, mentally, emotionally…I was done…I had some very difficult life circumstances thrown at me, that could have sank me…that left me as a single mother of twins, yet I chose to rise above my situation…for me and them. This journey to health was just as much emotional as it was physical. In the years prior, I had lost who I was, I had lost my self worth. I finally realize now, that I need to take care of myself..physically, mentally and emotionally, because I AM WORTH IT. It took me a long time to get there, and it’s not because of the number on the scale that I’m finally here, it’s because I am finally realizing my worth in God’s eyes. My journey wouldn’t have been what it was without His strength. I strive every day to become the very best version of me…to be someone great to the people around me, to inspire and encourage…starting first with my kids and working outward from there. I can finally be who God made me to be, for my kids and for others. I am continually learning and growing..learning what I need, what makes me feel healthy inside and out, and what I can’t allow for myself anymore. Because of my journey, I know my strength and I thank God that I’ve been through what I have, because I don’t know where I’d be WITHOUT my struggle…it’s made me who I am.
Are you who you need to be for yourself and for those around you? Are you living at your full potential? I wouldn’t even know how to answer that question a few years ago..but today, I can say that I am well on my way.. Being in my 30’s now, I see the importance of knowing who I am and who I need to be. Take a step to becoming the person you should be, for yourself and for the people you influence and live at your full potential..because YOU ARE WORTH IT. Start today…
