What is wholehearted Living???

To the best of my knowledge, it is choosing who you are and our opinion about you over what people’s opinion and the array of socially constructed rules and ideas you are expected to live by.
Wholehearted Living is saying I am enough, I am beautiful, I am smart, I am confident, I am bigger than my problems and my mistakes do not define me because I can and will do better.

Wholehearted Living is consciously choosing yourself over and over again irrespective of whatever circumstance. It is dancing to your favorite song when you feel like it despite the number of people watching and waiting to judge you, it’s no longer trying to be cool, wholehearted living is being you and doing all the goofy stuff that makes you laugh, dance and sing (as long as you are not infringing on anyone’s right).

Are you living wholeheartedly??? Are you scared to dance when your favorite songs come up because you don’t want to be judged? Are you afraid of singing because you will be told to keep quiet or “tone it down" and act your age? I have been there darling, and it hurts, I can vividly remember this aunt who told me to stop singing because I will never be a good singer😊 emphasis on “never"

*my voice sounds good to me and I sing anyway*

Well, today I choose to live wholeheartedly, will do that tomorrow and God help me with the courage to continue to do that till my dying day. Choose you today, choose you over who the society says you should be. I am rooting for us.

All my love❤️
