It’s okay to admit that I can’t do it all
And that some days I feel I am sinking
It is okay to admit that I am exhausted and flat
And that I am stuck in my negative thinking
It is okay for me to talk about my hard days
The days I cry, scream and want to run away
It is okay to admit that I don’t love every motherhood phase
And that I miss my freedom and ease
It is okay to long for quiet time and time just for me
It is okay for me to ask for help and accept it along the way
It is okay for me to feel these emotions and allow them just to be
It is okay to feel love, joy, anger, guilt and every other emotion in between
It is okay for me to surrender control and let go of all the small things
It is okay for me to be kinder to myself and embrace my imperfections
It is okay for me to shift my perspective and notice all of my blessings
It is okay for me to get knocked down and to get up again
It is okay to go with the ebb and flow of life
Some days are good and some days are hard
It is okay to honour myself as friend, mother and wife
It is okay to live a life with self-love, compassion, lows and highs
It is okay for me to speak my truth and encourage others to do the same
When we step up and lead the way, we pave the path for all to rise.
Love
