Am I enough?

Well, the question, “am I enough” is sure to point us in the direction of a defeated life.
What is a defeated life? One that sees no hope for the future. Life has become so overwhelming that we are lead to ask the question: “am I enough?”

Oh, there are moments when we feel like we’re more than enough. But doesn’t it usually always come back to this, this question.
