As we round out April (self-love month), let this river continue to run. Hold to this truth, Beautiful Sister, you’re the chosen one:

“38. You, The Chosen One

Out of eternity, your name was called to receive life, a gift that trumps them all.

Imprisoned within the walls of unhealthy competition, criticism, self-doubt, and insecurity, countless women languish, waiting for some illustrious person, authority, or event to choose them. We are “Sleeping Beauties” lying unconscious as thorns grow over our lives. If only our “prince” would come and set us free. When we get the job, receive the promotion, win the award, get noticed, or finally get him to propose, it will prove to us and the world that we are valuable, worthy, and enough. Behind the walls of our illusory prison, we wait—hoping that happiness is on the other side, and that we will be picked by whatever aim or person we’ve chosen to be our prince.

Who must select you? What must you achieve before you finally feel good enough, successful, or complete? The answer is no one and nothing. You’ve already been chosen for the most significant honor of all: life. The Infinite gave you life.” –excerpted from Chapter 38, of Resurrecting Venus
