I have decided today is the day that I am going to
sever some lifelong relationships. This
is the type of decision that usually weighs heavy on my heart. But, this time around, I feel peaceful. I’m at peace with ending these relationships
because I am at a place of being “DONE.” Done with the lies, mediocrity,
limitations, deceit, and heavy burdens these relationships have placed on
me.
Have you ever had to leave a situation that no longer serves
you, but instead suck the life out of you?
If you have, then you know exactly what I’m talking about. You see, this
post is not about being mean or scandalous but instead being transparent; sharing
some deep thoughts and feelings that most people would be afraid to share. But as I said earlier, I AM DONE…I AM DONE…I
AM DONE!
Therefore, shame, self-doubt, and fear, consider this your
eviction notice. You have no place in my
life. There is no room for you here
anymore. I am reclaiming the space you
once occupied and I am replacing you with honor, security, and courage. You have crippled me for long enough and I am
moving on without you.
Every time you
thought you had me face down, I was simply consulting with my newfound
friends. Honor told me that I am not my
past nor my future, I am my present.
There is nothing to be ashamed of.
Goodbye shame!
Security told me that self-doubt is merely a
manipulative, dishonest thought pattern buried in my subconscious mind. For this reason, I have worked hard to dig
you out of the crevices of my subconscious and I’m giving you the boot too.
As
for fear, you have been with me since I was a little girl. You were introduced to me by people that I
thought I could trust. For this reason,
I held on to you tightly and allowed you to introduce me to your friends, shame
and self-doubt. These are the things you would tell me:
“You will never be…”
“You
are going to fail…”
“You’ll never make it…”
“What if…?”
Quite frankly, I am
sick and tired of you weighing me down.
As a matter of fact, you get the middle finger and a swift kick in your
behind. I AM THROUGH WITH YOU!
Today is the day I choose to reclaim my life from the shame,
self-doubt, and fear I once felt. I am
replacing them with honor, security, and courage. I will no longer allow self-limiting beliefs
guide my life. Through self-reflection,
soul searching, and walking in faith, I have discovered that the real me is
self-defined. Negative belief systems
have no home here. In defining myself, I
am an honorable, secure, and courageous woman.
I feel much better now that I have faced those demons head
on. I feel relieved! Today, I am an even
better version of me. Mission
Accomplished!
Today is the day you should consider evicting negativity
from your life. Reclaim yourself and
move forward in faith, knowing that you are not your past or even your
future. You are who you choose to be in
this moment. You are honorable! Move forward knowing that you are in control
of your thoughts and security can easily replace self-doubt. You are secure!
Move forward with faith knowing that you are adequately prepared to face any
obstacle head on. You are courageous!
