Too small

Too quiet

Too serious

Too boring

Too selfish

Too big for your own boots

Too intense

Too slow

Too bold

Too independent

Before the time I was 30 (I’m 42 now), I was ‘told’ I was all these things and more.

I was ‘too much’ of so many things

and at the same time, I took it to mean that I was not enough.

Inadequacy plagued me and I responded by trying to prove my worth.

With money, with certificates, with my body, with material things, with virtuous traits, with trying to please other people.

Of course none of it filled in the cracks!

I was trying to meet the question of ‘when will I be enough, when will I measure up and meet everyone else’s criteria’, with ‘doing’,

instead of addressing the real question…

What will it take for me to realise and fully accept that I always was, I still am,

and always will BE, enough.

It’s not something to earn the rights to

It doesn’t come automatically from age or enduring hardship

It’s not about other people’s words or actions that only really portray their own inadequacies.

I didn’t need to fight for it, I just needed to let it settle in my overthinking mind that it was already there.

Thank god I got there in the end.

Maybe you were quicker than me and you’ve already got this memo. I hope so.

If not, it’s just arrived and whenever you’re ready, it’s waiting for you.

You are enough.

Not matter what’s going on for your, with menopause or anything else.

It’s not just a pretty thing to say, it’s your right.

And you can accept it whenever you’re ready.
