Like a Post-it Note

Post-it notes are small. They’re light, easy to overlook, and yet somehow, they’re everywhere.You’ll find them clinging to the edge of a computer monitor, tucked between book pages, or stuck to a refrigerator with a scribbled reminder. People grab them without thinking. They’re convenient, disposable, and quietly useful.And sometimes, we feel just like them.Not everyone moves through life like a…

Reminders for Everyday

You are good enough.

Everything and all that you are at this moment is enough to keep living. It's true that you can always do better, but at this exact moment you are equipped to spread love and happiness into someone's life. If you chose too, you are choosing to ensure that someone, for at least a moment, doesn’t feel the same emptiness that you have felt.

You are loved even if you feel alone.

There will be moments that you feel completely alone, but as life goes on, you'll only have even more opportunities to love and be loved. The only stipulation is that you must find the courage to allow those opportunities to turn into realities. In your darkest moments, there is someone there beside you. All you have to do is open up and call out to him. 

Your appearance does not in any way dictate your worth.

If you let the size of your waist resemble the size of your heart, then let it be the largest one you know. People won't remember what you wore or how you looked. The first thing they will remember is how you treated them. You can be someone worth loving without looking like you stepped out of a magazine. No amount of time spent in the gym will reward you more than the time spent in prayer. Talking to the one who loves you unconditionally and sees you for what you are worth is more important than your figure. If you’re trying to impress the people that don’t believe this, then you’re killing yourself over trying to impress those who will never be impressed.

Not everyone is supposed to stay. 

People come into our lives and leave an impact or a stain. They may act differently towards you than they do to others, but that can only mean that they aren't meant to be "the one" even if you want them to be. People that you truly want to stay around long term are sometimes the ones that are gone the quickest. Its only because they have been introduced into your life to help shape you into the person that you have become and are becoming. They have been present long enough to play their part even if they didn’t intend too. God has a funny way of working those things into life.

It has nothing to do with your appearance. 

People aren’t as shallow as you would like to believe. If people avoid you, look into yourself first rather than in the mirror. Look at the way you love yourself. The absolute hardest thing to do is love yourself unconditionally. If you can't love yourself in the way that God created you, the harder it will be for others to love you. The first step to happiness is embracing yourself and the blessings that you have, no matter how big or small. People will gravitate towards you if you have your own sense of peace. Everyone needs it in their lives, but we so often look for it in others rather than in ourselves and our walk with God. 

You are good enough. 

Just as you are, you are good enough for Christ. Why let yourself believe that you aren’t good enough for the world?

I need to learn not to invest so much of myself into people because no one stays in your life till the end and once they're gone or they stop caring about you the same you lose everything because you put too much into a person. But when you are passionate its hard to stop yourself, I need to invest in myself in order to be happy because ive ruined myself by being too caught up in other people's lives instead of working on my own
