No.
Not now.
Not ever.
Not here.
Not there.
Not anywhere.
No.
You can’t.
You won’t.
You shouldn’t.
Rejection.
After some pretty crappy news yesterday, I was rejected. Told no. Told I can’t. Told I won’t. It all hit me pretty hard.
I felt shame. Not good enough. Less than. I turned inward and beat the crap out of myself. My narrative was unkind. Very unkind.
And then I let go. Loosened my grip and let go. Allowed. Breathed. Relaxed.
And boom— the universe gave me a gift. Did the rejection feel like the end of the world? It did. Was it? Absolutely not.
So today, I refuse to bring yesterday here. I won’t allow that narrative to follow me. I will stand tall, breathe in the day, and allow things to unfold as they may.
Today, I tell myself Yes. Yes I can. And yes I will.
And you can too.
We ALL have times like this. You don’t have to do it alone. Not anymore.
Warmly,
Annie
