You are Enough
Good enough, smart enough, wise enough, etc. You are enough.
There is an ongoing notion that there must always be more. More. More!
This gets applied to virtually every aspect of our lives. Tangibles and intangibles. We need more money. More time. We need more toys. More love.
This sparks pointless competition between people. We look to the homes and possessions of our friends and compare them to our own. Then, we equate success and achievement alongside those comparisons. When we don’t match up in certain ways — it can cause us to feel we don’t add up, either.
