Because You're In It

Because you’re in it, the world is . . .a more beautiful place,a softer place,a kinder place,a more sensitive place,a more compassionate place,a sweeter place,a more empathetic place,a more creative place,a funnier place,a more joyful place,a little quirkier,a gentler place,a more loving place,a more understanding place anda more forgiving place.It also is . . .a smile richer,a teardrop moister,a hug warmer,slightly more imperfect,anda scar (or two) more real.These are the things that matter.They are but a few of the reasons you matter.They are why you are in the world.And why you need to stay in it.You may not always be in a place where you can see these truths about you.But that doesn’t mean they’re not there to be seen – they are.Look closer.Use others’ eyes at times if you must.Then, love you.
