September 25 - Belonging

When we belong, we know that we are held, accepted, and valued just as we are. It means that we are in a place where our presence matters.

It means that we don’t need to shrink or change to be welcomed.

And the first place that we should belong - is with ourselves. Our community begins with ourselves. Our home begins with ourselves.

We are already a part of the universe, of the world. We already belong here. Now, we just have to remember that, and act accordingly.

We may not belong in every space, but we can always find our space.

I hope these affirmations help us find it, remember it, and embrace it.
