Journal Prompt #33, write a letter to the moon

Dear Moon,

I love that whenever I look up to you, I can see you looking back at me. Tomorrow you will be ful, the Buck moon. Determination, progress and growth- somethings that I think we are all needing. Thank you for always looking out for me. For providing us with light in the dark and to remember that we are not alone in this world, that there are things out there looking back at us to ensure that we are in our right places at the right time. For being our emotional balance and reminding us that we never need to be anything other than what we are. We cycle, we change, but it does not mean anything is wrong with us. We are meant to move. What we change may impact others; however, as long as we stay true to ourselves, nothing is wrong.

Journal Prompt #76- What are you tired of proving?

I am so tried of proving that I am healing. I can tell people can see it, I live it each day but honestly I want to just rest and let go of the healing. I want to be who I am and not have anything holding me back or making me afraid that I am too damaged to be loved.

I am so tired of fighting these voices in my head trying to convince me that I am not good enough, proving again and again to myself that I am enough, I have never not been enough and I can be exactly where I am and be happy.

I am tried of proving that I am a person who is worthy of love.

It was something that I always felt like I needed to prove, something that made me feel like I had to work and try my hardest to be kind, care for people and anticipate their needs. At the end of the day, being me has always been worthy of love. I let other people convince me that I wasn't and now that I am on the other side of that hill I know that is enough. I am tired of proving that to myself. I am going to accept it as the truth. That I am choosing myself, choosing my destiny and my own happiness for the rest of my life. I let go of control, listen to my body and let it flow.
