i know there were a few people and experiences that led you to have low self-esteem. i know that through these experiences you kept meeting more and more of the same heartaches because you didn’t know you deserved better. you didn’t know what this “better” should, could, or would be. i pray that you fight for your right to love yourself. one day you’ll speak up clearly, you’ll feel confident, you’ll stand up straight, you’ll wear what you want, you’ll learn to say NO and you won’t take shit from anyone anymore. one day you’ll be able to clearly see what better looks like. and you’ll smile because everything and everyone in your life is better for you, because of you.

The background is gray and foggy. She’s standing atop a black glassy surface, and her elf form is reflected in the glass beneath her, which has light brown skin, brown hair, and is wearing the same red robe without the hood up.]
