Because I am good enough already

Because I am good enough already

I may not have abs, six pack or four or even two

Or puffy pecs or bulging biceps or other muscles that pop

No one will ever remember me for my body

But that is okay, because I am good enough already.

I don’t make six figures, or run a company, a department or even a team

Placed in front of a computer all day, under fluorescent lights surrounded by stark white walls

I try to remember I am not defined by what I do to make a living in this world

But that is okay, because I am good enough already.

I don’t have a partner, or lover or boyfriend

Relationships elude me, keep me single and searching for love

I always seem to be wanting what others find so easily

But that is okay, because I am good enough already.

I have family

I have friends

I have health

I have life

I have art

I have music

I have laughter

I have love

Because of these things, I am good enough already.
