Leaving Envelopes Behind and Not Becoming Who I’m Meant to Be

inspiration
 

MY BIGGEST FEAR is not being the person I could be had I only believed. And it starts with envelopes.

Growing up, I would have this dark dream… a nightmare, of sorts.

☠️  It starts with me passing away, MORBID, I know.

Keep reading.

When I leave my earthly body, I walk into this room which is completely WHITE and has a solitary white chair in the middle of the room.

I am motioned by this being, God, to sit down in the chair and as soon as I do the walls show up all around me... and I can see HUNDREDS if not thousands of white envelopes.

God motions for me to open the envelopes... and in each one is an index card with words written. Some with simple tasks on them... others with HUGE dreams laid out.

Some have to do with me, my family, my friends and others include dreams and outcomes for other people I have no idea who they are.

As I’m sitting down on the floor surrounded by these envelopes, God speaks for the first time...

“These are all the blessings I gave you and you were able to achieve HAD you only BELIEVED.”

 

And then I wake up.

Each time in a cold sweat.

People talk about their fears all the time, mine may seem silly to say, but I fear envelopes… I fear NEVER being the version I know resides within me.

_______

It’s why each day I SHOW UP determined to USE the talents God placed in my heart... as my goal is when the time comes + I am placed in that room with NO envelopes on those walls.

Become the best version of you ♥️

Start showing up as her. Build those habits that will lead you to her and the success you see for yourself. Create a life you love with those you love…

Grit + Gumption.

Note

I’ve always loved that quote: “A jack of all trades…” because it gives permission to be obsessed with more than one thing... without apologizing for it. 

This corner of the internet is built on dark romance, honest writing, and becoming the woman I was always meant to be. Sprinkle in some morally gray chaos and you're home.
