There are so many voices in our world and, yet, not everyone has a voice they use.

As I am looking on social media recently, I realize all that is being said, shared, conveyed, transmitted, offered and experienced.

How amazing that there are places we all can go and be heard; be seen; share.

I have been feeling that my ‘little’ voice that holds only my experiences, even through a big heart, doesn’t matter to everyone.  I have been feeling like there isn’t much significance I have to share compared to others.

This is not a fun feeling and, certainly, not a helpful feeling to myself or to anyone.

I was thinking that each life that lives – a book could be written on and each life that lives – does matter.

It is through each others’ experiences that we grow, connect, transform, evolve and learn.  I believe that what is meant for us we will see and know.  What is not meant for us, we will not heed.

So use your voice; speak your mind; speak your emotions; speak your truth.  If it helps one person, it is a good thing.  That person just may be You.  And, this in itself, is very cool.

Own who you are.  Own the colors of you.  As Cyndee Lauper writes and sings, ‘your true colors are beautiful like a rainbow’.

So if you find yourself doubting yourself as I am today,

May you feel it, process it and move on through it.  It is an untruth.

Keep you mind and heart open.

Speak and share the You that is inside of you.

You are beautiful like a rainbow.  Shine on my pretties.  Shine on my handsomes.  Shine on.

We are all here for a reason.  We all have ‘space’ that is ours.  Own it.  Use it.  Be in it.  Live it.

May you allow yourself freedom to “Just Be U”.
