Flawed + (Still) Worthy

Your worth is not something that can be earned.

By Colleen KellyPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

Your worth is not something that can be earned,

Or taken.

It doesn’t depend on your perceived beauty.

It isn’t defined by the dollars in your bank account.

It isn’t contingent on how many likes you get.

It doesn’t increase with ‘I love you’s’ or

Decrease with a ‘This just isn’t working out...’

Your worth is solely dependent on your breath.

If you are still breathing, you are still worthy,

Just as worthy you were the day you

Entered this world.

Your worth is your birthright.

Know that.

Love that.

Honor that.

In a world that thrives on you not believing in your worth,

It’s wildly bold, radical and brave

To claim your innate worth.

So be bold.

Be radical.

Be brave.
