Wonderful story! I've had the experience of something I saw as weakness become a strength. As a child, my learning that people were happier if I was quiet turned me inward, which had negative and positive aspects. The positive of turning inward was finding more of me. Eventually I grew to be louder and more outward and held onto at least some of what I gained in turning inward. If I could do it differently, I would learn at a younger age that my expressing me is an asset and I would learn to turn inward in a different way. I've had some wonderful teachers. From them I learned that I am plenty, that very much is possible, and it's for me to live and make good use of what I am. I'm still working on it.

I love ‘I am plenty.’ I have been saying ‘I am enough’ for years, but I think I am now plenty! Better, thanks!
