Do I Belong on Planet Earth?

One of my biggest struggles is feeling like I belong on planet Earth. It probably started in elementary school when I was bullied by kids who didn’t like themselves very much. It could have been when I was told that I was too sensitive or emotional. It could have been when I was taught that I was not enough. Not good enough. Not smart enough. Not pretty enough. Not skinny enough. Not listening to directions enough. All the not enough’s come flooding back to me and I hope and pray that I have not perpetuated the not enough culture to my own children or students. 

This is a picture of me, happy and shining, before the reality of being human set in. I think this caption sums it up perfectly. Sometimes I’m an angel. Only sometimes. Sometimes when I listen. Sometimes when I look pretty. Sometimes when I follow the directions. Sometimes if I prove I’m enough. 

Are you part of the not enough culture? The not enough culture makes us want to escape the reality of being human. We do that in all the ways that are available to us with distraction and numbing. Take your pick! But, there is another way.

The other way is not easy. You cannot be distracted or numb out. You may lose relationships that you thought would be forever. You may think you are going crazy or others may think you are losing it. But, I assure you, you will be more real and authentic than ever before. Most folks just won’t be able to handle your authenticity. It can be a lonely path, but it doesn’t have to be.

This is why I’m creating a community of folks who are choosing to do the work of shining from within. We are nurturing the inner flame that shines bright into the world to create peace, prosperity, abundance, and freedom for everyone. We can be free of the limits that we put on our own self and limits that others try to impose upon us. It takes courage to be the you that is you that is you. But, it’s possible. 

Every single human of this Earth family is worthy of living a life that is abundantly, divinely, uniquely their own. We all belong. You are enough simply because you are breathing.

Keep shining,
