WHO YOU WERE

Pierre Alex Jeanty

Once upon a time, you were uncomfortable with the idea of compromising yourself. You were
comfortable within your skin, within your standards. Somewhere along the road, the
disappointments, the heartbreaks, the failed attempts made you settle for mediocrity.

Ordinary, which was once a word far from your lips, settled within your heart. You’ve learned to
settle with what you’ve had, instead of seeking and waiting for better. A terrible thing it is for a
woman to decrease her value in her own eyes and put who she is on sale, discounting her worth.

Let not the bad you’ve had be all you ever have. Better is somewhere floating in the ocean of
people on this earth. It is unfair to the woman you are to remain the woman you’ve become – the
woman who let the trials of this life convince her to give herself to anyone willing to accept her
like a free trial.

Sweetheart, you must return to the woman who you were.
