Hey [dear one |ndc://-me]!

First of all, I want to wish [you |ndc://-me] happy holidays!♡ I hope [you’re |ndc://-me] doing well.

What I want to say to you is to remind you that you are important. No matter what you believe about yourself or what people have said to you all your life. You are important. Your feelings are important. Your life is important.

When you were born to this world, you were already worthy. There’s nothing you needed to do to be worthy of love and care. You still don’t need to do anything to be worthy. You get to just be, be you.

Love is not something you need to earn, it’s not something you need to change yourself for. It’s something you deserve. Because real love accepts you exactly as you are right now. With the shadow and the light. All of it, for it all is beautiful.

I say you have every right to be yourself. I say you are amazing and needed part of this world just by being who you are meant to be. You were created to be you. I say you deserve love even when you’re depressed, mentally ill or just a hot mess. Real love isn’t about perfection or fitting in a certain mold.

This world has  created so many rules and requirements about what you need to be to be lovable, attractive, interesting, wanted. But that’s all a lie.

Those ideas were created so that you would buy products out of insecurity, so that you would be controlled. The truth is you get to be exactly who you are.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

I also wanna remind you to give attention to yourself. You deserve it. Take care of yourself with the amount of energy you have right now.

You don’t need to beat yourself up if you haven’t been able to or have felt lazy. It’s okay. This is not a competition or a graded exam about how well you’re able to love yourself.

This is about you and giving yourself good care, with the energy you have right now. Be gentle with yourself this holiday, especially in the midst of all the corona fright going on.

You are a whole lot of lovely my dear. [you |ndc://-me] are a gorgeous being. Trust me, each of you were brought to this planet because you are meant to be here and find your joy.

I wish [you |ndc://-me] Merry Christmas with lots of hugs.

Love,

Tessa
