at the end of the day

At the end of the day, all you can do is hope that you helped someone love themselves more. You hope that you let them know that you felt their beauty — and that their beauty was in so much more than what they’ve ever been acknowledged for. You let them know that their beauty lies in their insecurities and in their repeating patterns. You showed up and listened to their sensitivities, you tried your best to help them move through them, with them. All you can hope is that you helped them find the courage to stand up for themselves — to choose pure love, truth, and forgiveness. For themselves first, and for everyone else around them afterwards.
