OUT OF PLACE

Dear Person Who May Feel Out Of Place,

Hi, I'm Kaci Hollingsworth, and for most of my childhood, I felt out of place. I never really fit into a specific clique. My interests varied so much that I wasn't sure where I belonged. I spent a lot of time worrying about the latter and wondering why I was so different. I didn't realize that my uniqueness was an attribute to my greatness, so today I want you to know this and hold it to your heart:
Your uniqueness is an attribute to your greatness. 

This past week, I found my place. I passed by it a couple of times on my way to the Union not really thinking much of it. I was given an invitation and I gave it consideration, but nothing was set in stone. When the date had arrived and I met in my place I realized something amazing. My place wasn't a “place” at all. It was my company. I met a young woman who welcomed me.  We shared our stories and noticed a divine connection. Within this connection there was respect, acceptance, and a willingness to gain an understanding for each other.  I learned that my place didn't have a label. It wasn't with a specific group of people, but with those who accepted and truly valued me. 

I want to encourage you all and let you know that you have a place. It's with the people who truly love and value you. Even if it doesn't feel like you've made it there yet, I promise, you will make it. Continue to get to know and understand yourself before you reach your place, and the journey will be 100% worth it. I believe in you!

Sincerely, A Person Now In Place

Sending out positive vibes, I encourage you to take a close look at your surroundings. Evaluate yourself and those around you. Find where you feel most valued and happy, and hold on to that place whatever it may be. I love you all so much!  Have a great week! ​
