You Are ENOUGH.

A note to the inner voice that wants to dim your light when you deserve to SHINE.

9
You Are ENOUGH.

To the person reading this, you are ENOUGH.

That brilliant mind of yours spins with ideas that excite every fiber within you. Yet that voice in your head says, "Don't do it, they won't like it" or "that's dumb."

Do it anyway. Be a rebel and show your mind whose boss.

After all, the only person worth impressing is YOU.

To the person who pulls all-nighters, works their ass off, and continues to grind day after day. Stop telling yourself that your lazy or unworthy when you take a day off to relax.

Take that day and run with it.

Do whatever feels right and know you deserve downtime.

When you feel small or like the world is caving in on you, know that you are not alone. From time to time, we all feel like we don't matter or life is too much for us to handle.

Trust your intuition in these times and know that you are ENOUGH.

To the person reading this that worries about what other people think about them, don't.

The older I get, the more I realize that life is too short to care about other people's opinions.

If it makes you happy, do it.

If it sets your soul on fire, go for it.

If you crave it, go taste it.

Brush off the haters and send them compassion. They only wish they could be as free as you are. Shine like the diamond you are, sweet thing.

Lastly, stop comparing your life to that of others. Nothing good ever came out of the comparison game.

You are bright, abundant, and beautiful exactly the way you were made.

How can you compare someones year five to your day one? It's toxic, a waste of time and a waste of your energy.

So go LIVE, EXPERIENCE, FALL, LEARN, and BE YOUR BAD SELF.

Don't worry about what the world thinks, continue to create a world where you thrive and you leave your positive mark on this world.

Everything you are and will ever be is ENOUGH.

Repeat after me, I AM ENOUGH.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.

The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
