I was afraid of being rejected until I learned to NEVER reject myself Inspirational Quote

 

I was afraid of being rejected

Until I learned to never reject myself

I was afraid of being abandoned

Until I learned to never abandon myself

I was afraid of the opinions of others

Until I learned that they held no more weight than my own

I was afraid of painful endings

Until I realized that they were also new beginnings

I was afraid of appearing weak

Until I realized how strong I truly was

I was afraid of being seen as small and unimportant

Until I discovered my true power and potential

I was afraid of being perceived as ugly

Until I learned to fully appreciate my own beauty

I was afraid of failure

Until I learned that it was an illusion

When viewed through the eyes of love, growth and learning

I was afraid of feeling low

Until I learned that it was the birthplace of brilliance

And where my greatest transformation occurred

I was afraid of change

Until I realized it was an inevitable part of life

In a world full of things temporary and fleeting

I was afraid of being alone

Until I learned to fully embrace and appreciate my own company

I was afraid of my uniqueness

Until I learned that it was where my greatness lay

I was afraid of the darkness

Until I remembered that I was the light

And I was afraid of life

Until I remembered who I was.
