Many times I have found that we don’t like the truth.
We question it as though somehow it will hurt us,
Yet it can only rest us, settle us, give us the tools to go on.
Yet the things that are not truth,
They are the easier things to pacify the day.
Wait until later
Keeps us not accountable a day longer.
So many times people ask how they can love themselves?
What does that mean to love myself?
It is to pay attention to the truth around you,
To care enough about you to no longer postpone who you are in this day,
To live in the day with the energy that it could be your last,
And the intensity that love is forever,
And the foresight to see both.
Self love is open ended
And susceptible to all changes of a day,
Yet when you are doing right by yourself
That day is always better.
Every “better” day that you have
Can become a way of life
And YOUR life is really worth it
YOU are really worth it.
No need to find reasons for why you don’t have to do anything now.
Flip the coin.
The same coin it has always been.
Knowing all along…
The other side of love
The other side of hope
The other side of you
In your pocket
Waiting for you.
