I almost didn’t recognize it
when it arrived
old habits
fought hard
I caught something
out of the corner of my eye
I heard a whisper
of truth
and I sat, waiting
It was love
reminding me
of lessons learned
quietly offering
an opportunity
to love differently
to choose, this time
to recognize
what it looks like
to love
myself

I have always believed, that in order to truly love others, we must learn to love ourselves.
Still working on it …
Thanks for sharing your heart 🙂
Thanks for your comment, my friend. Such a true statement. I find it shocking how long it’s taken me to figure this out. I’m sure I’ll be working on it for a while too, but that in itself tells me we’ve at least developed an awareness. Cheers…to love 🙂
