Self Acceptance

Imagine how many years have passed by, you have lived with yourself but you have never really met the real you. Isn't that notion scary?  but in all honesty most of us know it's true. We get to a point we cannot have a single conversation with ourselves because we believe the world will call us insane. Self Acceptance is the beginning of greater love and self wisdom.

Imagine walking past your fears, wounds, pain to someone real, understanding,  eager to learn, forgiving and to someone full of possibilities.  she had been just a little girl attending a school in which her mother was a teacher, for every good thing she achieved from passing with excellent marks to winning school awards word on the street was always " it's because her mother is a teacher", it was never about the fact that she really actually did good, she deserved it and she used to feel bad like she could attend another school where no one knew who her mother was until one day she snapped and simply did not care anymore about what people thought because she learned to love herself more and with that came accepting who she was, where she came from and what her mother did. That little girl was me. Until you take accountability of your circumstances and accept your situations you can never change anything or go anywhere where greatness and better life exists. When you change, the world begin to adjust itself to your changes and makes it comfortable for you to live because you are no longer fighting what you are.

Self acceptance is being brave enough to sit in silence with your weakness and figure it all out and drag it from darkness to light so it becomes your strength. It must be hard to live life under the shadows of someone else. Life requires each one of us to be bold. No road has ever been easy but it always begins with acceptance. A wise man once said you can never be able to lead the world if you have not mastered being the leader of Self, awaken the inner leader inside.

With every imperfection l found in me
So did perfection show up with a glow.
I owned up to my scars so they could never own me.
A trading that brought my fire to burn.
I broke the chains and unplugged my excellence and gracefully stood there.
Tears blazed my skin,
Fear shook my veins
Because l no longer had nothing holding me back.
Awaken in self acceptance love walked me back to who l am.
