You Are Enough

Sometimes when you need support to have the life you want, life can feel difficult and  overwhelming.

The systems that give us support aren't built to be flexible and change as the person does. Don't get me wrong, the system really is trying to be about the person, and I'm grateful for that.

I would like each of you to speak up for what you need so you can have the life you want. 

Please don't wait for someone else to speak for you. You are enough. Believe me, it is much more effective when you speak for yourself. You may wonder, “will my story make a difference?”  Honestly, telling your story is the first step in finding a voice that is uniquely yours. That is what matters most. 

I know sometimes you can feel like a burden to those who help you, and the anger you may feel as a result can be overwhelming. You might make mistakes along the way which can make the burden greater, but please remember the person you are is enough because you have a purpose.

The life you've been given might not be the greatest at the moment, but the only ones who can change it are you and the supports you have around you.

So please remember to give yourself some grace and remember that YOU ARE  

ENOUGH.
