I....such a significant word

I’ve worked out for over 20 years. Everyday there has been a drive within me to get stronger. Quite possibly because I felt the need to fight back. We’ve been told to exercise & eat “healthy” for ourselves, that taking care of self is a way of loving self and knowing self worth. Well, it’s only over the past 2 years that I have been discovering my net-worth, my value, the fact that I am beyond worthy to be loved. 
I got up everyday to make sure my kids were happy, to encourage others, to make sure they knew their breath mattered. I knew I had a purpose, to love, to share joy. Yet, I never thought I deserved it. 

Today, I finally want to be alive! Did you hear that? Or see it? That small, short word that is a game changer: 
I

I want to be here, 
I want to work out, 
I need it.
