I Am Worthy

This is for anyone who was ever rejected by their family. It is a deep wound and it's challenging to overcome. But healing is a process and you are loved and cared for by God and His Angels. I have a family member who was born gay in the 1950s, when it was even more challenging than it is today. He was beaten by his father and really struggled with his identity and self-acceptance. He never managed to live his life freely and with self-love. It's a sad and moving story, and I wish I could've changed this experience for him; but that would require a time machine and a few miracles. Let's be free of judgement and prejudice. Let's love and accept each other for our magnificent light and humanhood. No one is truly better than another, no matter what we think or feel. Remember: The Universe needs you. You're special and a blessing. I am worthy By Michelle Morris 30/03/2023 You're my parents You brought me into this world I'm a part of your family You're part of my soul We're connected Through time and space Through our soul contracts Our relationship and soul lessons As I grew older Developed into myself I realised that I Was different from others But I knew of your bias Your fears and bigotry And realised that my Authentic self was hideous To you, to our family And it made me insecure About where I stood In this big, big world The lesson I had to learn Was to love myself For who I am No matter the doubt For I am a blessing I am worthy of love I am worthy of dignity Kindness and support A life of happiness Joy and acceptance I know the Universe Needs my essence Each of us is part Of a greater pattern Sparks and energy Quarks and atoms God and His Angels Guide and bless my path For I'm part of the Universe Part of its precious heart © Michelle Morris, 2023
