Dear Me,

Realize I wasn't good enough for you.

There was a time when I kept trying to be the woman everyone expected me to be.

Perfect. Calm. Strong.

Always smiling. Always giving.

But the truth is — I wasn’t good enough for you.Not because I wasn’t beautiful enough, smart enough, or loving enough.But because I kept abandoning the real me.

I silenced my voice just to keep peace.I shrank my dreams just to be accepted.I carried everyone else’s emotions like a backpack full of stones — while ignoring my own.

And somewhere along the way, I forgot who I was trying to become.

Dear Me, I realize now…You didn’t need perfection. You needed presence. You didn’t need to be understood by everyone — you needed to understand yourself. You didn’t need to be chosen — you needed to choose yourself.

It took me breaking into pieces to finally see that the love I was searching for —was always meant to come from within.

Now, I’m learning to meet myself again. To listen to the quiet whispers in my heart. To stop apologizing for my light. To stand in my truth even when it shakes.

Because being “good enough” was never about doing more or being less —it was about coming home to myself.

So here I am — rebuilding, forgiving, softening.And this time, I’m choosing me.

✨ She Can — and she will.

Always,

SC
