A FRIENDLY REMINDER

Sometimes you feel like giving up,
and that's okay
Sometimes you feel your effort was wasted,
and that's okay too.
You're allowed to have bad days.
You were born with a heart, 
not heartless.

Every day teaches you a lesson,
find the lesson in your bad day.

[WRITERS NOTE: This was written last year on a day I was really down on myself, YouTube and creating content has been a big part of my life since being diagnosed with cancer - am now 3 years cancer free - but since I am still unable to work, creating content has been the most fufiling part of my life. When I wrote this, I was just talked out of deleting my channel. I was serious about it that time, I didn't think I was good enough, and just wanted to erase all of my progress, but that's what I didn't realize, it's all progress. Every video I've posted, every makeup look I've done, everything is just PROGRESS, and that's the biggest thing I've learned. I'm allowed to have bad days, but I don't have to over-react and beat myself up.
