„I always wanted to be enough,
good enough was what I strived for.
Being seen, being loved, being looked at like a blooming rose in a garden of shrubs.
I went out into the world to find someone to accept me, to hold me; adore me at last.
Wandering around, I have found many eyes that saw me, still I was not seen.
In my darkest hour where my soul drowned in a sea of sadness, there was a glimpse. I saw myself, mirrored in the depths of my water.
Eventually I saw myself for the first time, I saw my beauty, my pain and I saw my soul and at last my mind switched: “I am enough, I have always been”.
