“I Matter”
-You
Have you ever felt insignificant?
It’s a big word with a heavy meaning.
Perhaps a slightly different meaning to us all.
Some of us present strong, and hide our weaknesses.
Some of us are just tired of hiding.
Meme culture has lots of solutions…
“Significance comes from within.”
“You are worthy.”
“You are good enough.”
“Fall in love with the person in the mirror.”
3 second feel good reminders are nice.
But life is cruel and reality is sometimes hard.
We measure ourselves against others.
Against “norms”.
Against loosely defined definitions of success & external expectations.
We measure ourselves by how we’re treated…
How we’re spoken to.
How well we’re accepted.
How much we feel appreciated.
By the love we feel from others.
I too have struggled with finding and feeling significant.
To be honest, I don’t think anyone is truly immune to feeling unworthy.
I don’t have a solution or answers but I have come to learn and appreciate this simple mantra.
Fuck people.
Fuck people and their baggage.
Their hate.
Their projection.
Their ill tuned sense of empathy or lack there of.
Fuck the people who don’t support you the way you support them.
The people who don’t love you the way you love them.
The people who don’t give you what you need when you need it.
The people who treat you like shit and think that you’re on this planet to serve them.
Believe what you want, I’m here to tell you that you have fans.
You have people who care.
You have people who love and will love you.
Who will stand up for you.
Who will cheer you on
Who will build you up and never tare you down.
If these people are not in your circle you’re in the wrong circle.
It’s amazing how much better the meal can be when you realize which chairs are no longer needed.
You are worthy of love.
You deserve happiness.
You are significant.
And fuck everyone who doesn’t believe that.
Repeat after me…
I Matter.
Pour into yourself.
Tell yourself that you matter.
Know that you matter.
Pour into others that respect & value you.
Make sure those people know their value and significance to you.
