‘I Was Never Enough for the Wrong Man’

I cooked when I was asked. I cleaned dirty britches and dirty dishes, and everything in between.

I was an ear. I was a shoulder. I was a confidant.

I was a believer. I was a fighter. I was adventurous.

I was thoughtful. I was loyal.

I would sacrifice myself and my mind…for love. Because I was human.

I was a friend. I was a lover. I was a woman.

I was a good woman.

Yet still…

I was not enough for the wrong man.

Do you hear me?

I was enough. I was more than enough.
But for the wrong man,
It did not matter.

Did you catch that?

Know your worth and never ever settle for less than you deserve. A woman who truly knows her value will only put up with nonsense for so long. Stop trying to find the right man and start working on yourself to be the right woman. Always trust God’s plan and His timing.
