I hope you believe me when I say—
You are going to be okay.
You are okay.
…
You are not your mistakes.
You are not a mistake.
…
You are not lacking.
You are not too much.
…
You are worthy of love.
You are loved.
…
You’ve done enough.
You are enough. ♥

[I’ve given up on the ‘consecutive’ part, but I intend to finish the 30 days!]
Today is Day 27.

Great poem, and yes, it is enough ❤
