Every day I say, "You matter." I say this because it is absolutely true, but the thing about this is while it is true, it is also something we need to hear over and over because it is all to easy for us to think we do not matter. When we start thinking this, it can negatively impact everything. So, please let me say it again - you matter. This is absolutely the truth. Please believe me. You matter and how you feel matters, too, so the thing I want to say for today is, as you go through life, how you feel and the things you experience matter. Your feelings are valid. Your feelings matter. If people tell you to "get over things" or to "look on the bright side", you need to feel the freedom to feel whatever you feel because your feelings are legitimate and they do matter.
Your feelings matter because you matter. So, if you experience something which makes you happy, then absolutely feel happy! If you experience something which makes you feel sad, then please know it is okay to feel sad. I hope you have people around you to lift you up and to be there for you in the sad times.
We all have sad times in our lives, and we all have happy times as well. I do hope the happy times in your life outweigh the sad times and I hope you have people around you to support and encourage you, and rejoice with you as well. As I've said before, if you feel like you do not have a strong enough support system around you, please connect with groups in your area who may be able to provide this support.
I hope you take these words to heart. Here is my virtual "hug" for today -You matter. You deserve to be loved and are loved - I love you! You make our world a better place - we need you in this world. I hope you have people around you who tell you these things, but if not, please let me be someone who does. Yes, I say this every day, but these words are true and will always be so. You will find the video at this link.
