CELEBRATE YOU
You are worth celebrating. You are worth everything. You are unique. In the whole world, there is only one you. There is only one person with your talents, your experiences, your gifts.
NO ONE CAN TAKE YOUR PLACE
God created only one you, precious in His sight. You have immense potential to love, to care, to create, to grow, to sacrifice if you believe in yourself.
It doesn’t matter your age, or your color, or whether your parents loved you or not. (Maybe they wanted to but couldn’t.) Let it go. It belongs to the past. You belong to the now.
It doesn’t matter what you have been. The things you’ve done. The mistakes you’ve made. The people you’ve hurt.
You are forgiven. You are accepted. You’re okay. You are loved in spite of everything. So love yourself, and nourish seeds within you.
Celebrate You!
Begin now, start anew. Give yourself a new birth today. You are you, and that is all you need to be. You are temporary. Here today and gone tomorrow. But today – Today can be a new beginning. A new thing, a new life. You can deserve this new life. It is given freely.
SO CELEBRATE THE MIRACLE AND CELEBRATE YOU!

I love this entry!! We never take the time to celebrate ourselves. We seem to always be running around to beusy with life or too busy celebrating others to take the time to think about ourselves.
I think this is a great time of year to sit down and celebrate all that you did and plan for all you will do in the next year.

This one hit my core. At a time when I’m feeling not good enough, I thank you for reminding me that I’m unique and one-of-a-kind.
