Hi....I'm Kristy...and this is my blog...a place that I come to share what is on my mind and on my heart at the time. You are more than welcome to follow along with me. Hope that maybe there is something that you read here that touches your heart or moves you in some way. Seems it has taken me a lifetime to find my voice...and now that I have....I intend to use it. Live life large...and enjoy the ride.
Why is it so hard for some of us to see our own worth...our value...our goodness...for some of us its a daily struggle to rise above the negative self images...that seem to perpetuate our thoughts...we search for our value in the eyes of others... we are starving to be affirmed by those around us...we seek our validation in ways that prove our talent...our skills...our abilities....we seek this validation but we seek it in the wrong places...Until we get the revelation ourselves...we will continue to question our own worth...and will continued to be swayed by the opinions of others...Its only when we truly realize that we are absolutely beautiful...not because of our looks...not because of our abilities...not because of things we have done...we are beautiful because of who we are...simply beautiful...created beautiful....

I think that it takes a lot of work on ourselves to finally see our worth.. to realize that what is beneath 'the story'..and just truly accept ourselves as we are. Learning to accept ourselves is ultimately freeing. It kind of forces us to recognize that what happened to us doesnt define us.. its definitely a freeing feeling to reach the point of acceptance.
It does take a lot of work on our part to see our worth...but it is so worth the work...what we endure is certainly a part of us....to a degree...but it is not who we are...we are amazing, beautiful, talented, intelligently gifted individuals that have so much to offer...because of what we have endured...not in spite of it. For that I am so thankful. I see myself as I am...no longer lacking...just a beautiful person.I pray you see yourself the very same way.
In a world that continues to try to tell us who we are ....Here we stand...just being who we are...and we are who we are and as strong as we are because of the struggles and trials that we have not only endured but also come through. So here I am! Stronger!
