She knew that she had been hiding her feelings from the world, and she was tired of living a lie--a lie she mostly told to herself.
She had told herself she wasn't worth it, but she knew that reality was quite the opposite--She *was* worth it.
So she picked up all of her anxieties, all of her imperfections, all of her incongruences, and she started to run.
She didn't know where she was headed, or which way was north, but she kept on running and praying.
She didn't care how silly she looked, or how many people doubted her. She just ran.
Every step was one step closer to her true self, and she ran and prayed every day from then on out.
6 months later, she still runs, and fights for the truth.
She feels more beautiful than ever--not just because she has lost weight from her body, but because she has lost the weight of all that baggage.
She doesn't care anymore what people think. She just tries to do what God tells her too, and she does it with all of her heart.
It's not always easy, and it doesn't always make sense, but she still does it.
Some people may not understand her either, but that's okay, because who's she trying to impress anyway?
So, she will just keep on running, fighting, praying, and knowing that she's finally going down the right road, and that realization is more than she could've ever asked for.
