Peppermint Hot Chocolate and Selling Myself Short

Peppermint Hot Chocolate

Ingredient’s:

  • 1 1/2 cup of milk of your choice. I used Almond Milk

  • 1/2 cup of coco powder

  • 1 chocolate candy bar or chocolate chips

  • 2 candy canes

    Instructions:

  • Add your milk, candy bar, candy canes, and coco powder into a medium size sauce pan.

  • Heat on medium heat and stir frequently until the ingredients melt.

  • Once the candy canes and chocolate bar have melted. Let the hot chocolate cool off for your desired temperature.

  • Grab your favorite mug and pour the hot chocolate in.

  • Top it off with your favorite toppings. I used whipped cream, chocolate syrup, and crushed candy canes.

  • Enjoy! This was a little too sweet for me, so if you don’t like extra sweet drinks maybe use less of the chocolate candy bar. It was still good though :)

 

Dear me, 

I’m sorry for not fully loving everything about you. I’m sorry that I have been comparing you to so many women and neglecting who God created you to be.
I'm sorry that I make you feel basic because of what other people look like and have. I’m sorry that I have been measuring our worth to other people's journeys, lifestyle, clothes, bank accounts, blogs/business, and relationships. I’m sorry I have turned our mind into a less than battlefield everyday.
I am sorry that I don’t tell you that you are beautiful everyday. I am sorry that I don’t express gratitude to you everyday. You have a lot to be grateful for. I am sorry that I have been discontent with the life you have.
You have a great life. You are doing great. You are making a huge impact in this world. I am sorry that I don’t give you enough credit. I am sorry that I haven’t healed from the spirit of inferiority.
I’m sorry I keep delaying our race because I keep getting off the track to stare at other runners as they run their race. I’m sorry that when I do get back on the track I can’t run because I am weighted by self pity, shame, lies, embarrassment, disappointment, anger, and doubt.
I am sorry that I have been entangled for years. You don’t deserve this life. You have so much to do and live for, but I have been holding you back.
I have been allowing that little less than girl to rob you of your “now” and “next.”
I have been so caught up in trying to get you where you want to go that I haven’t healed your heart or gave you time to enjoy life! I am so sorry.
I am so sorry that I have been selling you short of who you are and how far you have come. I have been selling your works so short. You are an amazing writer and creator.
Your words bring healing and encouragement. I have been selling your life so short. You are where you are supposed to be and you will get to your promised land.
I want you to know that you can enjoy your life while still working toward your promise. God is not in a rush. Lastly, I am so sorry for not loving you the way you should be loved. I have not been kind to you. I hope you can forgive me! No more selling you short baby girl, you are rising in pure Godfidence.

Love,
Le’nae

The root to a lot of my negative thinking, patterns of behavior, and financial bondage was the spirit of inferiority. At the age of thirty one I was operating as the little girl who felt less than since fifth grade. This little girl and I have been in a relationship for years, and this year after everything God has done in my life, has shown me, and has healed me from; I broke up with her. I was released from that unhealthy relationship and way of living. I wanted to write this letter to express my forgiveness to myself. I am grabbing my power to learn how to walk and think differently.  I can’t wait to see who I become!
