“Good enough you are.” – Yoda

Confession: Yoda didn’t *actually* say that, but he totally would have.

This morning as I’m sipping my coffee and waiting for my morning medications to kick in, I keep reflecting on this notion of good enough.

When did we start buying this story that we were “less than”?

Or that something in our outward reality was a direct reflection of our unworthiness to be/do/have our heart’s desires?

When did we confuse the idea that we’ve missed a mark with personal flaw?

Almost every session I do with my clients is around this.

Almost every healing session I do with and on MYSELF is around this.

Worthiness.

You see, our mind has created stories about our worthiness and how it ties to the outside world. How yelling at our kids when we’re overwhelmed means we are bad parents, or how not *quite* knowing how we’ll pay rent/the mortgage means we are unworthy of financial stability, or how having a physical illness means we’re broken in some spiritual way and we MUST heal that spiritual thing before we’ll feel good again. We’ve created stories around what these things mean.

But that’s all they are – created stories.

They aren’t reality.

And we don’t have to believe them.

We don’t have to buy into the story that we are unworthy because something isn’t meeting our expectations.

We can see the story, hear it, even feel it and still know it is a lie.

It IS a lie, by the way. A big fat lie.

You and I are perfect, whole and complete exactly as we are.

There’s not an outward thing we have to be, do or have before we are perfect, whole and complete.

It’s innate.

It’s who we are on the deepest level and it can never be shattered or washed away, even if it feels like it has been.

It’s always there.

I love you.
