Indomitable Koi

growing up really is scary, deep down I’m still the same as when I was 16 and with no idea of what to do or how to start. and I’m stuck in my head while life goes on

Who you are is enough. You are enough. You can be authentic and be loved at the same time. You don’t have to earn love by being whatever the other person needs you to be. You can be yourself and find happiness, joy and love. It is okay to walk away from those who demand you to adjust to who they want you to be instead of who you are right now. You deserve more than conditional love, you deserve more than having to earn love, than feeling like you have to beg for breadcrumbs of affection because you are never good enough for them. Find people who love you for your authenticity, who already think you are good enough just as you are right now.
