Why is it that we can so easily forgive others, see their beauty..uplift them, give them praise..but to our own selves..my own ...I sell myself short.
Note To Self
Be kind when it's difficult to see the goodness in you
Be patient with you when your lost in your own soul
this is when you are most creative.
Listen to music
she is your muse
Find your beauty
send tenderness to the place
that shuns your reflection
Let love in
and swell your heart
till she she is abundantly full
Never stop hungering for more
and when you do
dont listen to the whispers of self doubt
You will resent the time lost
Hold onto your passion
and she will find her way to you
Allow yourself to wander in dreams
but find
center
a safe place to dwell
Soothe and nurture your soul
when it is hurt and broken
care for it as you would your childrens
Never waver in your heart or mind
when you know the answer
deep in your gut.
And when you dont know..
Love me
Choose me
Pick me
Remember?
What you feel
What you want
What you say
counts too.

would you mind terribly if i chose to heed your note to yourself also?!
Oh I so much agree with you... The others always so good.. and us...so very less than normal-
Good resolutions
Now I never take it ... So easy to undervalue oneself. Is this due to education, the idea they gave us about God and altruism and give give, give, without expecting anything in exchange... ??
I keep wondering
Great post
;)
Oh sure Shadow..it's a sticky note you can take with ya ;)
Dulce...I think some of it was a former god thing in my case..and part of it being a mom and always giving..the self sacrifice sort of thing..thill finally you cant find yourself anymore.
Now that I am becoming familiar again...it is easier and much more natural to want to..nurture myself..take care of me for a change ya know?
If we dont take care of ourself first we have nothing left to give others.
oh, totally!
they never taught us
to be good to #1!
but you're right...
you have to learn
to love yourself
as if you are your own child.
and really
it does come
with practice.
you're there!
(you're everywhere you wanna be.)
peace~ Chuck
Glad I finally got caught up on your blog... I'll be reminding you of this one frequently!
