What if it takes a thousand nights of shame and lack of sleep, to convince me that I'd benefit from changing how I think?
What if I stop struggling to always be the best?
What if I pursue instead to love myself and rest?
What if I reframe my thoughts and change my core beliefs?
What if just accepting me would bring such sweet relief?
What if I am good enough just the way I am?
What if I accepted me and told myself, "I can!"?
What if I'm surrounded by encouragement and love?
What if when I'm powerless I look to One above?
What if when I feel the need to always have control, I embrace my "humanness" and pray to calm my soul?
What if when life knocks me down, I sit and think a while, and choose to feel whatever comes without my cagey smile?
What if it's not natural to act like nothing's wrong?
What if I acknowledge hurt before just moving on?
What if disappointment and the aching of this life, is simply just a stepping stone, a blessing in disguise?
What if I take care of me and send myself some flowers?
What if when I feel alone I call my Higher Power?
What if I am worthy of protection and of care?
What if always judging me just really isn't fair?
What if it is safe for me to live with imperfection?
What if simply "letting go" could change my life's direction?
What if I decide to give my life and all my will, to the care of One who knows me best and ever loves me still?
What if I'm not broken and what if I'm ok?
What if I believe that I'm acceptable today?
What if I am kind to me and fine with who I am?
What if what I choose to do is change the things I can?
What if I stop asking if I'll ever be enough, and choose instead to still myself by trading fear for love?
What if to feel adequate, I simply ask the question "Is it what I do or who I am that shapes my life's direction?"
What if I surrender and choose not to fight life's war?
What if it is possible acceptance offers more?
What if I choose not to try to change the way I feel, but make the choice instead to do the things that help me heal?
What if I choose gratitude, humility and grace?
What if I embrace the fact that life is not a race?
What if I forgive myself and focus on today?
What if life's not black or white, but many shades of gray?
What if I am lovable and worthy of respect?
What if I give up the need to always be correct?
What if I am talented, unyielding and secure?
What if I am capable and failure is obscure?
What if all these things are true? Well I believe they are. I'm confident it's possible I've really come this far.
