I Just Want To Be Enough

Adora,
Little Rock, AR

I have so much to offer. I am a good person. I am a loyal friend. I am intelligent. I deserve kindness and love. Yet it has taken me until I was 40 to erase the narrative of who I am that I allowed others to convince me of. I lost many years, but now I am doing the work to forever know that I am enough. I am uniquely and specifically made. I have a purpose. My skin tone, my hair texture, my gender, my values combine make me, ME!
