Who am I not to be a writer?
Who am I not to share my talents with the world?
Who am I not to be who I really want to be?
Who am I not to go after my dreams?
Who am I not to express what is inside of me?
Who am I not to be me?
Who am I to ignore all that is within me?
Who am I not to pretend these things don’t matter?
Who am I not to put myself first?
Who am I not to express what matters most to me?
Who am I not to share with you what matters to me both ugly and beautiful?
Who am I not to follow my heart?
Who am I not to listen to my intuition and know things you might not know?
What am I not to answer my calling?
Who am I not to do what is best for me emotionally or financially?
Who am I not to be my best self?
Who am I not to be honest about what I want and what I need?
Who I am not to be who I really want to be?
Who am I not to follow societal rules?
Who am I not to go against people who think they know what is best for me and let my wings soar?
Who am I not to close myself off and let go parts of my life don’t fit me anymore?
Who am I not to be what I was put on this earth for?
I wrote this last week as the negative voices started to invade my head as I was trying to write.
It is straight from my heart and unedited.
Shout those negative voices down, Chrissy! 🙂

You have every right to be YOU! Ignore the negatives and those who would just love to control you. Turn from them and walk into your empowerment. Keep on being you and don’t allow anyone to take that from you. SMILE!! xo
