Insecurities Part 2: Moving on.



So how do you move forward after feeling crushed, insecure, or hurt? To be perfectly honest, I’m not even entirely sure. All I know is that you have to take one day at a time. You’re not going to fix yourself in a day, as it took much longer than a day for you to learn how to properly love yourself, so it’s going to take a bit longer to feel that self-love and reassurance for yourself. You have to figure out how you feel and why you feel that way and you certainly don’t owe anyone any explanations about your feelings.

 “Insecurities have the ability to shape and mold our minds to live with everything that’s bad; like crying on the inside, while smiling on the outside…thus creating pain…but, alas, I have the answer; forget about what you thought and embrace what you feel”.

 Embrace what you feel.  Why? Because every feeling will all help in determining how you move forward. Even the negative.  Just remember: You are able to control every situation, not always your feelings, but you are able to control how something makes you feel……I’m not in any stretch saying that it’s easy, but it is possible. However, allow yourself the time to feel through those emotions, and then move on. No matter how disgusting one’s comment to you was, no matter how hurtful one’s actions were to you, it’s never worth so much of your positive energy to worry yourself away. 

 Remember a few things: Stop comparing yourself to others because it undermines your worth, education and your parent’s wisdom. Live your dreams, not because of what it will prove or get you, but because that is all you want to do. People’s opinions don’t matter. Realize that no one is your enemy, except yourself. You can have everything you want in life; however, it takes timing, the right heart, the right actions, the right passion and a willingness to risk everything. If it is not yours, it is because you really didn’t want it, or need it. Believe that love is not about losing or winning. Happiness is never about ‘getting’ a person. And lastly, you are the one that determines your happiness, your worth, your public perception of yourself and everything else in-between.

You are beautiful. Wonderful. Enigmatic. Unique. And always deserving of feeling as such.
