There are many things I can do.
I can hold down a job.
I have raised three kids.
I knew when to leave a bad marriage.
I can survive.
Yet doubt tells me
I should be working on getting a new job.
I will never be a good enough parent.
I let myself fail my marriage.
I survived but I am not thriving.
So, why this duality of mind?
I know I am capable yet I still tell myself I am useless.
My heart wants love but my mind tells me I do not deserve it.
Even if it is self love.
