Everything Kieks

A week or so ago in a conversation with my friend Kai said to me “I wish I had the money to invest in you, I think you are so talented”.

“tears”

“Behind every great woman there is another great woman cheering her on”

I have thought about what she said every day since. It’s crazy how people from the outside looking in can see greatness when you cannot.

I wish I could see myself the way others saw me.

I could give just about any person I know a complement or find something great about them, but that has never been the case when it came to speaking about myself.

I remember during my first ever therapy session the therapist asked me to tell her something good about myself and I had nothing to give to her. With a blank stare she said oh we need to work on that.

I am still working on it!

I am starting therapy again soon and I am sure the new therapist will probably ask the same or close to the same question. If she does what would I say?:

• I have a hard shell but underneath I am very caring and want the best for others.
• I am non-judgmental and believe in giving others the safe space to be themselves. (I think I could be a counselor)
• I am emotionally intelligent.
• I have vision.
• I am a good mother.
• I am a hard worker.
• I love my family and do my best to be there for them
• I am good a decorating party’s (I could be an event planner. )
• I am loving.
• I am beautiful.
• I am a good friend
• I am a good partner.
• I am good daughter.

I have been praying lately for God to send me clear signs of the next steps to take. I love so many things and feel like I have some talents, but I don’t truly know which road is the right one now.

God give me the strength and clarity of mind to find my purpose and walk the path you’ve laid out for me. I trust your Love God and know that you will heal this stress. Just as the sun rises each day against the dark of night. Please bring me clarity with the light of God.

I am working on not being so hard on myself and seeing myself in a better light. Just like everything in life it is a work in progress, some days are better than others, but I will continue to work at it.

If someone were to ask you to say something good about yourself would you have an answer? what would you say? comment below.
