Don't Tell me I'm Not Good Enough.

Don't tell me I'm not good enough

when I gave it everything I had.

Don't tell me I'm not good enough

when my balance is running on empty.

Don't tell me I'm not good enough

when the pain threatens to overtake me.

Don't tell me I'm not good enough

because I can stand to lose everything...

Everything but you and my very soul.

Good for you girl! It's important to stand your ground!! Lovely piece. :D

I never thought of it like that...but in a way, I suppose it is true. Thank you.

We all do our best and sometimes that does not live up to the standards someone else has set. An empowering write. Lydi**

Thank you, Lydi. That is indeed true...

if anyone tells you are not good enough---then that person isn't worth a salt---those who would make us feel bad about ourselves do it to make themselves feel better...and they can destroy us if we let them.

Some very important insight about those who try to make others feel badly. Unfortunately, when people who occupy positions of authority do not value the lives of those around them...well, you get the rest.
