So many of us struggle to feel, that all by ourselves, we are enough. Most of us have our self worth tied to something outside of us.
I think this is why failure can be so devastating.
Some parents have their self worth tied to how well their child does in sport.
Some people have their self worth tied to how happy everyone else is around them.
Some people have their self worth tied to how magnificent the project they are working on turns out.
When something outside of you fails, it feels like a reflection on who you are…as though you are the failure.
You are never a failure.
If you are human, you are always miracle. Always. Or you wouldn’t be here in the first place.
And I think being a miracle is enough. Everything else you happen to take part, or be a part of, or experience, is just the icing on the cake.
