44, and finally choosing myself

44, and finally choosing myself

 


cutting my cake with my momma

 

 

Hi Darling,

 

I woke up today — 44 years young!

It’s Pisces Season - I am so grateful to see another year.

 

And all I could think about today was how much life has taught me

about letting go.

 

Letting go of the version of me

that thought if I just said it the right way.

 

If I delivered it from this angle,

they’d finally hear me.

 

Letting go of waiting for someone to wake up and see themselves

when maybe they never will.

 

And I don’t say that with anger.

It’s just the truth.

 

There are some people who will hold onto their chaos like it’s the only thing keeping them steady.

And you cannot spend your life trying to pull them out of it.

 

Because, my darling, you-deserve-joy, too.

Not the kind you have to beg for —

it’s the kind you give yourself when you decide you are worthy of peace, even if they never change.

 


enjoying my homeland

 

Gratefulness -

That’s what 44 feels like to me.

Grateful to be here.

Grateful to finally be choosing myself.

 

And you?

Well, darling, you deserve to choose yourself, too.

 

Because no matter who they choose to be

darling, you still get to choose you.

 

 

With love, Vee
