Today’s Gift from Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation is:
Never Question Your Worthiness
Brené Brown says that we all deserve love and belonging, and that our worthiness is our birthright. Louder for the people in the back: our worthiness is our birthright. I love how solid, simple, and complete that phrase is. We don’t have to prove our worthiness. We don’t have to hustle or fight for it. We are worthy just through the simple act of being born.
Those of us in recovery need to work hard to stop questioning whether we are worthy or not of — anything. We deserve to be loved by our partner, our children, other family members, friends, and other important people in our life. We are worthy of forgiveness for what I like to call “the shit we did.” We are worthy of respect and equality and health care and all the services we each need to heal. Don’t question your worthiness, if you are still doing that. Just claim it.
Operating from a place of knowing we are worthy frees up a whole lot of time and energy.
