[2022-08-23] You matter!
A friend sent me this quote a couple of months ago:
You are important and you matter. Your feelings matter. Your voice matters. Your story matters. Your life matters. Always.
I reread it today and something compelled me to share it now.
Perhaps you need to be reassured that you are important. Perhaps you need to be reminded that your feelings, voice, story and life matter. Perhaps you're doubting your influence.
Others may not always tell you you matter. Instead, they may show they care in other ways: stopping by just to say hello, commenting on your post on social media, sending you something from their garden, making you a cup of coffee, taking the dog out, donating to a cause you support, asking about your day, saying something positive about you in front of others.
You do matter. Always.
