89.29 I am unapologetically radiant

You can’t ignore me - and I don’t want you to. 

I wasn’t born to be small.
I was born to bloom loudly, with fragrance that lingers
and petals that curl like laughter caught midair. 

I am unapologetically radiant.
I take up space.
And I want you to know -
that’s not a flaw. That’s a gift. 

“You are not too much.
You are not too bold, too bright, too alive.
You are exactly enough for the life that is meant for you.” 

I didn’t wait for permission to open.
I trusted the moment and reached for the light.
And now here I am - a burst of color,
a cluster of confidence in full expression. 

But know this:
I did not bloom overnight.
It took time.
It took quiet seasons.
It took believing I was worthy of beauty,
even before the first petal unfurled. 

So if you are still becoming - that’s okay.
If you are still learning to let yourself be seen - that’s okay too. 

I am simply here to show you what happens
when you no longer shrink
to fit someone else’s garden. 

You were not meant to blend in.
You were meant to bloom out loud. 

And I - in full, fragrant glory -
am proof.
