[2023-04-19] I'm proud of you

I'm proud of you.
You were anxious and worried.
But you got up, showed up, stepped up,
And you made a difference for yourself and others.

I'm proud of you.
You might have imagined the worst, kept your fears to yourself.
But you shared your concerns instead,
And you asked for help to see things in a different way.

I'm proud of you.
You anticipated a sh*t show—perhaps it was.
But you looked for and found the positive in the situation,
And you were part of that positive, helping others to see the good too.

I'm proud of you.
You recognized everything that was out of your control.
But you chose to focus on what was within your control,
And you kept moving forward.

I'm proud of you.
You didn't ask for this and you might have quit before you started.
But you committed to trying,
And you made it through the day.

I'm proud of you.
