Hey. Listen to me. This, like you, is important. You are beautiful. Your persistence and determination are beautiful. Your work is beautiful. Your fight is beautiful. Your rests are beautiful. Your strength, joy, hurt are beautiful. Your heart is beautiful. Your mind is beautiful. Your body is beautiful. That body of yours is fighting to keep your here. It wants you to keep going, and so do I, beautiful one.
I’m glad you’re here.
You are doing so well, my friend. You are powerful and prevailing. You are moving forward, even when it doesn’t feel like it. You are doing such beautiful and important work, and I promise you are worth that time.
I’m glad you’re here.
Friend, it’s okay to push yourself. Sometimes it is necessary to overcome things, but it’s not always. Sometimes it’s important to let yourself take a step back. That’s not failure. That’s understanding what you need, and that’s beautiful and important, like you.
I’m glad you’re here.
Trust yourself. No one knows better for you than you do. That’s important.
I’m glad you’re here.
You, dear one, are the only you we have. There isn’t anyone else in the world exactly like you. No one else carries your experiences and personality. No one else carries the specific set of things you’ve learned from life. That makes you special. You matter. You are important. We need you.
I’m glad you’re here.
You are doing important and powerful work. You are worth every second of that work. Keep it up!
I’m glad you’re here.
Dear one, you’re the only you we’ve got, and it’s so good to have you. You are loved. You are valued. You are important. You matter. You, just as you are, are loved.
I’m so glad you’re here.
Be kind to yourself. You wouldn’t let your others treat themselves this way. You’re just as loved and valid and important, so be kind to yourself. You are worthy of that kindness.
I’m glad you’re here.
You are the only one like you we have. This makes you valuable and precious. You are needed. We need your perspective. We need you. You are valued. You are important.
I’m glad you’re here.
You are, friend, are doing great things. Everyone will not always sing your praises. People may not even notice or acknowledge all that you are doing. That doesn’t mean you stop working. You aren’t doing it for the recognition. You are doing it because it is important to you. Continue to do it for that reason. Continue to do it for the love of it, joy of it, because you want to help or do or be. Because you want to. Continue.
I’m glad you’re here.
