your story matters.

Ever have someone in your life that you would like to just shout out from the roof tops the talent and gifts they carry? Ever has somoene you are just so proud to have in your life. Yet they have no clue the gift that their life is or the talent that lies in their soul. They look at themsleves in the mirror and struggle with what and who they see looking back at them. They lock their beauty and talents tightly up. In pure fear. Fear they might be exposed. Fear they might be rejected. Fear they might be seen less as the person they want others to see them as. Fear they aren't good enough. Just fear. Its sad when you look at them in complete amazement. Its painful when you know the beauty that lies in their soul. Its almost unbareble when you know that their life matters in so many ways. So how do I ask you, do you get someone to see such a thing. How do you get them to understand the gift of their life. How do you show them that just being you is always enough. Its a work in progress... a fight that is constantly fought yet one that never should be let go of. Because to me each of us has a story... a life story and that story is always one to be heard. Because every single one of us... Matters. We all bring something to the table of life... and if just one of us didn't it (didn't think our life mattered) would have a ripple effect on life... like a pebble being thrown into the pond the ripples spread to places even the eye can't see... You have a gift. You matter. You make a difference in lives (in people you already know and in the lives you don't even think of). Your story matters... Continue to live it with every single fabric that makes up your soul.
