Dear One,
When so much of your life has been about pouring yourself out for others, it can be hard to know where to draw the line. To know what of the truest parts of you to share with others and what parts to keep just for yourself.
When you want so much to make your friends and loved ones happy it can be hard to know how to separate yourself from what they want and need - all too easy to ignore and sacrifice your own wants and needs… to start believing they don't matter. That, deep down, you don't matter. And if the deepest part of you doesn't matter, there is nothing left of you worth protecting. No valuable piece of you that no one else can have.
You hide behind alcohol and disguise what you're doing to yourself with words like "art" and "love" while you provide yourself for consumption.. drowning out your fears and silencing the voice inside that tells you that you are worth more than this, that there are parts of you worth guarding from the world. You let others talk you into giving away so much that's precious about yourself, and you don't even realize...
How very, very valuable you are.

LYRICS
"Beautiful" by Mercy Me
Days will come when you don't have the strength
When all you hear is "you're not worth anything"
Wondering if you ever could be loved
And if they truly saw your heart they'd see too much
You're beautiful
You're beautiful
You are made for so much more than all of this
You're beautiful
You're beautiful
You are treasured, you are sacred, you are His
You're beautiful
And praying that you have the heart to fight
'Cause you are more than what is hurting you tonight
For all the lies you've held inside so long
And they are nothing in the shadow of the cross
You're beautiful
You're beautiful
You are made for so much more than all of this
You're beautiful
You're beautiful
You are treasured, you are sacred, you are His
You're beautiful
Before you ever took a breath
Long before the world began
Of all the wonders He possessed
There was one more precious
Of all the earth and skies above
You're the one He madly loves
Enough to die
You're beautiful
You're beautiful
In His eyes
You're beautiful
You were meant for so much more than all of this
You're beautiful
You are treasured, you are sacred, you are His
You're beautiful
You're beautiful
You're meant for so much more than all of this
You're beautiful
You're beautiful
You are treasured, you are sacred, you are His
