Broken Open: Artwork #41/1000
You are not broken.
You are getting broken open.
You are getting broken open.
You are not damaged.
You are being taught compassion.

You are not lost.
You are learning which way not to go.

You are not alone.
You are just trapped inside of your head.

You are going to get through this.
You are discovering how resilient you are.

Glasses: Artwork #42/1000
Maybe you see me as
not good enough, not pretty enough,
not skinny enough, not smart enough.
or all around not enough.
Maybe you see me as too much.
Trying too hard, caring too much
too sensitive, too emotional, too loud,
or all around taking up too much space.
Maybe that is how you see it.
Maybe you need glasses.
Scratch the maybe.
You DEFINITELY need glasses.

Circles: Artwork #43/1000
I can go around and around again.
In circles and circles.
Trying to be your perfect vision.
But what if I stopped trying?
What if I don't want to go in circles?
Maybe I want to jump up and down.
And back and forth.
What if I want to walk in zig zags?
Maybe I want to walk backwards.
And only turn left and never right.
Would the world fall to pieces?
If I walked my own path.
Would I crumble to dust?
Would I blow away with the wind?
Probably.

Probably.
But honestly, I have always wanted to fly.

Strong Legs: Artwork #44/1000
It's amazing really,
how strong my legs have become
from the amount of times
I have chosen to get back up.

Glitter Eyeliner: Artwork #45/1000
Do not let this be the thing that breaks you.
Come on girl.
Pick yourself up.
Put on your glitter eyeliner.
Blow out the candles and make a wish.
If nothing else make the wish,
that this will not break you.

Not So Graceful: Artwork #46/1000
I am standing at the top of a mountain.
I didn't climb it very
gracefully. I tripped
and stumbled my way
up. Sometimes I would
make it three feet just
to slip back four. Sometimes
I stopped and cried.
Sometimes I stopped and
laughed. Sometimes I ran.
And sometimes I crawled.
The point is I got there.
A lot of people didn't think I could make it.
But I did.

A Moment In Time: Artwork #47/1000
Everything you have been through.
Everything you have overcome.
It was always just a moment in time.
Think of all those instances.
Place it against this point right now.
You survived that. You can survive this.
Let this be just another moment in time.
Let this be another step to take you higher.

Know Who You Are: Artwork #48/1000
ALWAYS
remember who you are.
remember who you are.
AND
remember you are
allowed to change and still
know who you are.

AND

where you came from.
