🫵🏻 You were made to take up space 🫵🏻

Why are we so often in a hurry to make ourselves smaller than we are? 

Far too often, we end up tiptoeing around so we won't be too much. We hold back some of our good mood or wonder whether we're taking up too much space in the room. We hide away our joy and our big hearts just because others prefer everything to be completely bland and superficial.

But you know what? You weren't made to sit in a corner. You were made to take up space. 

Taking up space isn't about steamrolling others at all. It's simply about daring to be 100% yourself. It's about laughing out loud, speaking your mind with plenty of humor, and having fun with the energy you have.

If the people around you can't handle you shining or having loads of power, that's their problem. Never apologize for your own light just because others feel more comfortable in the shadows.

You are unique, you are strong, and you should never change yourself for anyone. 

So stand tall today, put on your favorite clothes, and feel your own strength. Step forward, be proud of the person you see in the mirror, and always remember: 

You weren't made to fit in; you were made to take up space. 🌸🫵🏻🦋
