I used to carry every name the world threw at me like stones in my pockets. broken, damaged, hopeless.
Maybe you know what that feels like, carrying names that were never yours until they almost became you. For years I walked inside that echo, believing it was me.
But then I felt her.
the little one watching from behind my eyes. She wasn’t asking for perfection. She wasn’t asking for proof. She was just asking if I would still choose her, even after everything. That question cut deeper than any of the names. It forced me to decide who I would belong to: the voices that wanted me small, or the self that had been waiting to be claimed. I realized then: I could not belong to the lie anymore.
Choosing myself didn’t arrive like fireworks. It came like air after drowning, a breath I had been holding for years finally released. It felt like setting down someone else’s story and picking up my own.
Maybe you’ve carried names that were never yours. Maybe you’ve wondered if choosing yourself is selfish. It isn’t. Choosing yourself is never selfish. Choosing yourself is survival turned holy.
Choose yourself anyway.
