She doesn't need anyone's affection or approval to be good enough. Her worth is not contingent upon other people's acceptance ---it's something inherent. She exists and therefore She matters. She is allowed to voice her thoughts and feelings. She is allowed to assert her needs and take up space. If someone judges her, it's not actually about her, it's about them and their own insecurities, limitations, and needs. She is allowed to remove anyone from her life who makes her feel otherwise.
She is no one else, but one among us. Have you ever felt that, you've lost yourself or your identity? Have you ever felt that, will I be more than a mom ever again? It happens with me most of the time.
Sometimes I feel sorry for myself that I doubted my worth. I didn't realize how strong and how resilient I could be. Whenever I am alone I converse with my loneliness that I don't need any sort of motivation or inspiration to start wheeling my journey again. I have to believe that I am a beautiful soul I may not be perfect, but I am good enough. I am like sunshine which appears with a streak. I am like the birds in the sky who fly far with their wings. I am like the moonlight on a dark night which does not want to fade. I am like a beautiful flower that blooms up in the spring.
The upbringing of normal Indian society is that men do not proactively do the household chores as instinctively as the lady of the house does. Our mind is set since the beginning and this thought is imbibed within us. But I really wonder why a lady is always supposed to ask for help, both men and women are equally responsible for all the family chores.
Why She only has to shatter her dreams to balance her life? Why She cannot follow her passion? Why She is always judged by society and everyone else around? Why She is supposed to be at home and look after kids and other members alone? Why She has to face a lot of hurdles every day? Why She feels hard on the grounds of reality? Why She is completely directionless and headless? Why She is the source of fun for others which in turn causes havoc in her life? Why She has to feel that deep sense of guilt if She prioritize something that interests her? Why She always has to make a choice? Why Her life is like peeling an onion, with every layer she opens, she shed her silent tears? Why with every sarcastic remark or injustice she has to move on?
There should always be a mutual understanding and equal distribution.
Rediscovering herself after motherhood and to mold herself at any point of time, it's like a battle which she has to conquer with. She has to learn to prioritize herself so that she can be enough for her family but mostly for herself. She has to take the risk even though she is petrified of failures because she has to believe that her faith is stronger than her fear. Whenever life knocks her down, her only option is to stand back up and just wish that things would get better.
BEYOND THE POINT, She has to believe that real happiness comes from within and to become complete, She has to feel enough with all her flaws and failures, with all her mistakes and imperfections. She is a life-giver. She is a creator. She is the one who can make four walls into a home. She has to believe that like her there can be no other. She is the one who can perfectly play any role. She needs no validation to feel valued and is the real form of contentment that She is good enough.
