That comparison thing? Just stop it.
That thing where you look at someone else’s life/style/home/body/ability/following/influence/ecetera and then you compare them to yourself…? Just stop that. You aren’t doing yourself any favors with that kind of thing, dear heart.
Comparison can only give you two things:
insecurity
pride
And none of need any more of either of those things, right? I surely do not. Both insecurity and pride will keep you from being fully alive as yourself, and this world desperately needs more women who are fully alive and fully embracing who they are…not striving after who someone else thinks or says they should be/look/live, not striving to become like who someone else is.
So just stop it, myself and yourself. Look at your life and all that you are and be content. You lack for nothing. You are lovely, loved, and known. You are not above anyone, nor are you beneath anyone. You are you, and that, my dear friends, is all that you need to be. The striving needs to cease. The competition needs to stop. Comparison replaced with contentment. Look at your life and all that you are and see the beauty that is there.
What about you: do you feel like comparison is a fight in your own heart as well?
I’d love to hear your thoughts!

Such a fight. It’s one I feel like I’ve never fully conquered because without fail it tries to rise again…
So thanks.
