Inspired by Ariana Grande's "Positions"
My Dearest Daughter,
As I write these words to you, my unborn treasure, I am filled with a profound desire to guide you on the path of wisdom and self-discovery as you enter your 20s. Life, my dear, is a tapestry of relationships and experiences, often entangled with insecurities and anxious attachments. Yet, within the pages of this book, inspired by Ariana Grande's "positions" album, lies a captivating guide that will illuminate your journey towards recognizing your worth, conquering anxieties, and embracing the boundless power that resides within you.
We will embark on this transformative odyssey together, beginning with the heartfelt melody of "POV." This poignant song urges you to step into your own shoes, viewing yourself through a compassionate lens. Embrace the beauty of self-love and recognize the unyielding resilience that flows through your veins. By doing so, you will mend the wounds of past relationship traumas and forge a stronger, more unshakable sense of self-worth.
"Just Like Magic" brings forth a message of manifesting positivity and resilience. Let it always remind you, beautiful girl - that you possess the power to shape your own realities. By cultivating a mindset of abundance and gratitude, your insecurities will be transformed into strengths and help you create a life filled with joy and purpose. Allow this empowering anthem to kindle the fire within you, inspiring unwavering trust in your unique abilities and the enchantment that resides within your soul.
Finally equipped with your daddy’s favorite song - the opening track "Shut Up," I implore you to not only ignore the opinions of others, but, equally, silence the inner critic and negative self-talk that may seek to undermine your worth. Draw boundaries with self-doubt, societal expectations, and the toxic influences that may try to hold you back. Tune out the noise, babygirl and tune in to the symphony of your authentic self. Rediscover the melody of your true voice, for within its timbre lies the resonance of your power, waiting to be reclaimed.
Throughout the pages of this book, you will encounter not only lyrical inspiration but also practical guidance. Learn to cultivate self-compassion and practice self-care as the pillars of your healing journey. Always remember to be mindful through the deep breathing and grounding exercises we practiced when you were a little girl; these are to help you tame the anxiety that may threaten to overwhelm you. In these moments of stillness, you will rediscover the harmonious connection with your innermost being.
My love, let me impress upon you the importance of surrounding yourself with positive influences and a nurturing community. Seek out healthy relationships and friendships that uplift and inspire you along your path to healing. Build a network of support and encouragement with those who recognize and appreciate the immeasurable worth that radiates from your very core.
Ultimately, remember that true empowerment originates from within. Never connect your self-worth to external validation or your relationship status. Embrace your individuality, celebrate your unique qualities, and honor the journey of growth that is uniquely yours. With unwavering patience, self-acceptance, and the courage to let go of what no longer serves you, you will witness the blossoming of your inner strength.
I pray you allow this book to be a guiding light, illuminating the path to your true self. May it inspire you to transcend the boundaries of anxiety, embracing the vast courage that resides within your heart. As you navigate the symphony of relationships and self-discovery, always remember that I am always here, unwavering in my love and support.
With all my heart,
Your Father
