Every now and then, I need to sit with this little girl and remind her of a few things:
That she is worthy, loved, and perfect exactly as she is. Her heart was broken so many times that, somehow, she began to believe otherwise.
The rushed, hostile, and frightening world made her feel so unprotected that fear arose to keep her safe — but it also stopped her from living freely.
Now, I am here to look after her. She is not alone, and she never will be again.
I’m here to tell her that she married someone truly special, and from the love she found, she gave birth to a beautiful boy who made her a mother.
She once dreamed of becoming an actress so she could experience different lives within her own skin. But she couldn’t imagine herself moving to a bigger city, far away from her small hometown, where more opportunities could exist. And yet, she crossed an ocean and went far beyond anything she could ever have imagined.
And now, I’m here to tell her that although she didn’t become the actress she once imagined, she still lived beautiful experiences through art and drama. Only now, the stage she belongs to is a flat mat, barefoot, with no masks to wear.
This little girl and the woman she became are one — finally ready to live life on her own terms. 💫
