When I didn't know my Worth
I once dated a guy when I didn’t know my worth, who said my face isn’t that pretty but my credit might work.
I once dated a guy when I didn’t know my worth, who said I was his second option if the first one didn’t work.
I once dated a guy when I didn’t know my worth, when I said NO regarding my body, he held my hands down, restrained me and said BE QUIET this won’t hurt.
I once dated a guy when I didn’t know my worth, who had a secret family and additional lies and dirt.
I once dated a guy when I didn’t know my worth, because of my fear of being alone I just settled with cruel words and convinced myself that “WORDS DON’T HURT”.
I once dated a guy when I didn’t know my worth, that I comprised my faith, values, good judgment and just hoped that the relationship would work.
I once was a girl, now woman who didn’t know her worth, and the decision that you see where a direct result of the thoughts I had of me. I was on a tedious long journey and didn’t even know I was LOST, and because of that my self-esteem, self-love, and confidence paid the cost.
Living In a shadow not knowing there could be light, until one day I truly FOUND myself. I found myself to be beautiful, I found myself to have joy, I found myself to have a voice, I found myself in the will of God… but I found ME, and I gain the best gift, one that I can celebrate all year long, SELF LOVE!!
So I speak to the heart of the little girl or grown women, that does not know her worth, remind yourself that you are fearfully and wonderfully made , keep saying it until your mind believes its , your heart receives and your life reflects it.

Be blessed & remember you are the #DaughterOfTheKing
