Illusions & Assumptions: Assuming Rejection

Is it real when I feel that I don’t measure up? Lyrics Excerpt from Who I Am by Blanca

The most popular assumption in the world
Is that we are not good enough.

When we believe this
It affects all we do and the decisions that we make
It determines who we are comfortable around
The jobs, careers and ambitions that we pursue
It becomes our reason for doing everything we do.
One lie forms the basis of all that we are

But just because someone said it in a certain context
It doesn’t codify our uselessness
You are a bad singer should not become I won’t sing
You are not charming should not become I’m hateful
Hurtful facts should not birth an assumption about your life
One bad line should not become your life’s soundtrack

The Takeaway

Rather than assume your total and complete rejection
Consider how the Nature’s treats you
The sun lights your path and the moon illuminate your face
The stars adorn your night
If such beauty and community exist for you
Why not assume that love and acceptance also exist for you
