I am giving the present the opportunity to hold just as much joy as the past.
SHELBY ENSIGNI am giving the present the opportunity to hold just as much joy as the past.
SHELBY ENSIGNIf hope is the shape of the sun, I wish always to stay where she shines.
SHELBY ENSIGNNature has become a part of me when I am lifeless, I go to her – she is life.
SHELBY ENSIGNI have to believe that ahead of me are entire adventures waiting to be lived, for the sun hasn’t abandoned me yet.
SHELBY ENSIGNMore often than I am not, all I need is the rise of my own lungs – I am already complete.
SHELBY ENSIGNMaybe self-care is choosing to be your own kind of lovely.
SHELBY ENSIGNI am enough for me.
SHELBY ENSIGNSome days I am okay, and some days I am not but always, I am worth every struggle.
SHELBY ENSIGNI am no longer looking to others to show me my worth.
SHELBY ENSIGNI will make my mental health a priority because I deserve to know peace.
SHELBY ENSIGNI am welcoming a new phase of life with confidence in my potential to progress in spite of my fears.
SHELBY ENSIGNI will breathe because I must, but I will smile because I’m living.
SHELBY ENSIGNAnd as the sun smiles to bless this new day, I inhale life, and journey on.
SHELBY ENSIGNToday will end and another day will come – I can’t bend time into softer motions all I can do is live.
SHELBY ENSIGNI step out, into the pouring rain. What am I if not alive?
SHELBY ENSIGNTo be healed by sunlight is the most divine miracle of all.
