Have you ever felt small or powerless around others when you knew that you were much better than that?
Sometimes we get caught in the darkness of words, doubts, fears, or beliefs that come from things that don’t live inside of us.
When that happens somehow we can lose our light and that surely isn’t fair, dear mixed girl.
As girls who are different, we have to remember that we are different and yet we still have power and purpose in this world.
There is no reason that we have to live in darkness that someone or something tries to cloud us with because we hold a light that brings forth our greatness.
The strength that we have to tap into is that in which we recall all that makes us great, beautiful, unique, wonderful, important, intelligent, and special because nothing can take any of that away.
It may be hard to remember those things when your light grows dim, but you still have the power to increase your light if you consistently try.
If you ever feel that your power is being taken away from you, reclaim your light in the darkness and own the wonder, fabulousness, and uniqueness that is you.
Letter Entitled “You’re Powerless, Not Me – I House the Light in The Darkness”
The “Dear Mixed Girl” letters are a series from Dr. KayLa N. Allen that share experiences, motivation, and compassion. These letters are linked to the “Dear Mixed Girl, What is Your Identity?” coaching program. Other related messaging that Dr. KayLa creates is to re-shape the way that mixed girls and women think about themselves and how they contribute to the world by being themselves.
No “mixed” experience is the same, but many parts of the biracial/multi-ethnic experience are similar. It is in these similarities that we can find individuals truths and ways in which we can become the best version of ourselves regardless of what the world may show us.
Dr. KayLa N. Allen’s greatest hope is to share with others her truth and what lives inside of her so that there can be sustainable changes and powerful impact in those living the life of a “mixed” girl.
If you or the mixed girl in your life felt the impact of this letter, read more empowering messages and find out how you can transform yourself, be proud of who you are, and lead a unique and joyful life via Dr. KayLa N. Allen’s coaching programs.
