Worthy or not?

I have always had a hard time believing I was worthy. Growing up as the middle child in a big family - I'm one of 8! - meant that I could disappear and hide. I could slip beneath the radar and never have to do anything of note. So I strived to never be seen.

I always felt that my contributions were small compared to what everyone else had to offer. So I limited myself in my mind. I never felt I went out on a limb, even when I did. I kept things within the guide lines so I wouldn't stand out and be judged as not measuring up. And I never gave myself credit for the things I did accomplish.

In reality, I never developed trust in my own inherent worth. It's been a big lesson in my life. Maybe the biggest.  But the more I understand that my worth isn't dependent on me measuring up to a checklist that never existed, except in my own imagination, the more I can sense a possibility of a different way of being. The possibility of freedom and expansion.

Like me, you don't have to do anything or be any different than you are to be worthy of this life.  Your existence proves your worthiness. You are a spark of the divine in human form shining brightly in your own unique way. With a glow that is yours alone. With a resonance, a frequency that no one else can replicate. You are loved. You are enough. When we get this we can finally begin to cherish, nuture and share the value we bring to this magical existence.
