Learning to Trust Myself

Here I am. Right NOW. There is no other time; there is only this now and then this now.

As I reflect on my life and my still being here and alive now, I must have been enough in every previous now for it has brought me to this moment in which I am writing this. There have been moments I did not think I could make it through and yet here I am. All evidence point to my being enough in the previous moments of this life.

I am enough.

I repeat that to myself now. I am enough, enough for now. Here I am. When I slip into borrowing concerns from the future or dwelling on mistakes from the past, I wonder if I will be enough. That is when I lose the moment in which I currently reside. And that is when I forget I am enough. If I can see that I am enough now, I can begin to trust that in each now, I am enough.

I hope those words ring true for others, for you who might be reading this short post now (whenever NOW is). I hope you can remind yourself right now that you are enough. Remind yourself; say it to yourself. Repeat it like a mantra in this moment. I am.
