Proud to be ME 😎
When they look at me and admire the person that I am, I know they have no idea what it took for me to get here, and that’s okay.
Though I’ve been in some dark places and been down some bad roads, I wouldn’t change a thing about who I am or where I’ve been.
I’ve made every mistake you can think of and I’ve chased every bad love you can imagine, and yet, I’m still standing.
More than that, I’m thriving, growing and getting better every day.
Sure, it’s hard to think back to the dark days when life brought me to my knees and I didn’t know how I’d ever survive..
But I figured it out, I made a way and somehow, I ended up on the other side of the storm intact.
I’ll never tell you that I didn’t cry mountains of tears, get down on myself or just wonder how I would survive, because I did all those things.
It’s a hard thing when you’re at rock bottom and all you’ve got is yourself to depend on..
But that’s how I forged my courage and strength- in the flames that tried to consume me.
I fought,I clawed and I struggled for every small victory and every little success that kept me going.
I kept climbing when I didn’t have the strength and I battled to become the woman I knew that I could be..even when I couldn’t find the light sometimes.
And let me tell you-
I didn’t think I’d make it most days.
But that’s the beauty about writing your own story..I was the one holding the pen, and I refused to give in, give up or settle for less.
I knew what I wanted and I realized what it would take to get where I wanted to be, so I stopped complaining, whining and feeling sorry for myself and I turned the page to a new chapter.
I picked myself up, I fought my way back from my lowest point..and I kept going, I kept rising and started climbing.
So, yes, when I look in the mirror today, I’m very proud of the person I’ve become.
I earned my way here with every scratch, scar and bruise along the way.
It wasn’t easy, painless or fast..
But as I stand here smiling, standing tall and proud,
Through all the heartaches, the struggles and the pain, I remembered the most important thing of all:
It was worth it, every step of the way to become the woman I was always meant to be.
Just watch how high I rise.
