The Part of Me I Hid Was the Part of Me That Needed Love
I allowed myself to feel unworthy…
because I knew unworthiness could still be loved.
If one of my children felt unworthy,
I would wrap them in love until they could see it… feel it… remember it.
But I did not do that for myself.
Instead, I hid her.
I covered her in perfection, in how I looked, how I lived, how everything appeared,
trying to outrun a feeling that only ever needed to be held.
And all along, she wasn’t asking to be fixed, she was asking to be loved.
So now, I sit with her.
I love her into safety.
And as she softens…
my nervous system softens.
I am no longer disrupted by what others do, think, or say.
Because I know something deeper now.
I am loved.
I am accepted.
I am seen… by me.
The Pattern Was Never Me
No one told me I was unworthy.
In fact, I was loved. I was special.
But my sensitivity…
my deep feeling nature…
created a response in my body that stayed.
And for years, I looked for evidence to match that feeling.
Not because it was true, but because that part of me had not yet been loved.
So, I gave.
I served.
I overextended.
Sometimes from love, but often to prove my worth.
I used service as a way to be seen, and as a way to avoid receiving.
But now I see…
When I give to fix myself,
it is not truth, it is protection.
And I no longer need protection from myself.
I Release the Need to Earn What I Already Am
I release the addiction to the future; the need to know and the fear of the unknown.
I surrender the need to figure it all out.
Because what I have suppressed is what has always been true.
Joy.
Joy is not something I earn.
It is not something I prove myself worthy of.
Joy is who I am.
The highest expression of love is joy, and I am that expression.
I no longer need to fix anyone to feel it.
I no longer need to earn it.
I am joy.
I am freedom.
I See Me
I breathe light into all parts of me, not just the ones I once believed were worthy,
but all of me.
My voice does not need permission.
It only needs to be heard by me… first.
I see now that
I am not here to be seen by others.
I am here to see myself.
I am my higher self.
The desire to be seen was never me, it was the patterns asking for love.
And now they have it.
Sacred Return
I release the pleaser.
I release the fixer.
I release the one who thought she had to hold it all together.
I return to the light.
And from here, I see the world as healed.
I trust that everyone is on their path.
I no longer need to control, fix, or carry.
Devotion
My little girl did not break me, she protected me.
She carried me.
And now… I carry her.
With love.
With gratitude.
With reverence.
The pattern of unworthiness…
was never who I am.
It was simply something waiting to be loved.
And now… I See Me.
