“Wounded does not mean ruined. Healing does not mean fixing. You were never less than whole.”
When life has left marks — betrayal, abandonment, grief — it’s easy to believe something is wrong with you.
Why else would they leave?
Why else would this keep happening?
Why else would I still feel this way?
But pain is not proof of brokenness. It’s proof that you’ve lived, that you’ve loved, that you’ve felt deeply.
*You are not broken. You are becoming.*
Healing doesn’t make you more worthy. You already are.
This journey is not about becoming perfect — it’s about remembering your original wholeness beneath the scar tissue.
Today, speak to yourself as someone worthy of love, not repair.
Because you are.
Sit quietly and place both hands over your heart. Breathe slowly. Repeat inwardly: 'I am whole. I am worthy. I am healing, not because I’m broken — but because I’m alive.' Let this truth settle deeper with each breath.
Write down three things you’ve believed made you ‘damaged’ or ‘not enough.’ Then, for each one, write a truth that reflects your worth beneath the wound. Keep the new list visible as a daily reminder.
Amira H. “I carried this feeling for years that I was too messed up to be loved. Like something was permanently wrong with me. But this reminded me — I’ve always been worthy. Even before the healing. Even during. That truth changed everything.”
You don’t need to be fixed. You need to be loved — especially by you.
