you haven’t had it easy, that’s not hard to see

you know what’s funny, fam?

you thinking that you’re seeing the exact same person every single time that you look at yourself.

you have changed so much over the course of your life.

not only do you look different, you act different.

you may even feel different about who you are today.

you’re truly experiencing life in a different way, in a way you haven’t experienced it before this moment.

take a look at yourself today + see a walking miracle.

see your triumph over past struggles, see the love + light that radiates throughout your aura.

notice the smile wrinkles you have from smiling so much, from laughing + enjoying life.

look at yourself + see what peace of mind looks like today + what it looks like to be joyful in any situation.

today, take your time seeing yourself more clearly than ever.

focus on what’s happening inside of you, the changes + the shifts that are taking place, + realize how fulfilling life is for someone who remains in pursuit of living life on their own terms.

you haven’t had it easy + at times, you’ve wanted to give up —

take a look at yourself standing tall. 

see how your patience with yourself + others has given you the freedom to live an abundant life full of blessings upon blessings upon blessings!

when you see yourself today, realize what you are seeing a past version of yourself that has carried you to this moment in time.

thank that person for their prayers, for their persistence, + for getting you to this point in your life where you decide to stay the course or to pivot in pursuit of something different.

you are dope, fam.

i hope you see that today.

be you, be dope!
