Beautiful Mess

Image courtesy: Google


Let it be, my Darling
I love your imperfections
Running around
With your hair all over the place

Let it be, my Darling
You are who you are
And that's what makes you special
That mischievous twinkle in your eye

Let it be, my Darling
Those mistakes you made
Have transformed you into 
Who you are today, a better human being.

Let it be, my Darling
Quit the need to balance
Don't forget to live
Amidst the chaos 

Let it be, my Darling
I chose you for who you are
Stop trying so hard
And embrace the beautiful mess you are...

P.S. This post was inspired by this article. The advice that the author, Elizabeth Gilbert, offers all the women out there is simply priceless. 

P.P.S. Do watch the video too!

  6. Your stubbornness is what has made you unique. As long as you don't give up from what you are and don't follow others blindly, you are precious. Each word touched my heart. :)
