Uncovering Shame

Sometimes you have to uncover the things you’re ashamed of, to find out what you’re proud of. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Upon reading that you may think “oh she used to be ashamed of her body and now she loves her body”. Nuh uh. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
My truth is, I used to be ashamed of my body and now I live for more things beyond it. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
It is the parts of me. It is not my whole. I get that now. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
So I uncovered my shame. ⁣⁣
To stop thinking about it so much. ⁣⁣
I kept living. ⁣⁣
To discover what I’m made of. ⁣⁣
To realize all I have to be proud of.
