do you ever sit + ask yourself, when did the world become cold for you?
like do you remember the time when you didn’t know words like boundaries or reciprocity? you would just love, the world was love + everyone in it was too.
when you used to be effortlessly kind — and you didn’t need a reason to be that.
when you used to be light + airy — with no pressures from the world or society.
when you used to be delicate — welcoming + receiving help + love.
yes..
you are so much more wise now, but…
you used to be warm.

ᴅᴇᴀʀ ᴛᴀʏʟᴏʀ,
i am so proud of you. you are everything i could have ever dreamed of. you didn’t give up God, + you stayed true to who you are. if you never accomplish anything else in life, based on what i see — you have already made it. i look at you now + i can barely contain my excitement. your life is beautiful, your spirit is kind, + you are a walking testament of God’s love. please don’t ever forget that + never let anyone or anything take it away from you.
i want you to know — i’m still here. you are still sweet. you are still kind. God protects + fights for you; not you, a man, a friend or anyone else. heal. love. forgive. + move forward. like always.
ʟᴏᴠᴇ, ᴛᴀʏʟᴏʀ

“what happened to you?”
“this is not who i made … ?”
question: would God recognize you right now?
He knew you before you were born. before your parents even got a chance to teach you anything. He knew you before the pain, the hurt or insecurities.
would He be able to see you as the woman He created you to be? or would you look a little different to Him?

ᴅᴇᴀʀ ɴʏᴀʀᴀ
I wish I could tell you that all of your dreams will come true. I wish I could tell you that you’re not weird, you’re uniquely you! You don’t need to alter who you are, what you do, & what you like to “fit in”. You were never meant to fit in. Never keep quiet about things that don’t make you feel comfortable. Never let people manipulate you into thinking things are “right” when you KNOW they’re wrong. Trust your own voice, and judgment. Girl, you are so smart! Your name means woman of great purpose. You are truly God’s flower. You don’t have to do things to be accepted. Jesus loves you and sees you & He’s on your side.
ʟᴏᴠᴇ, ɴʏᴀʀᴀ
