Today,
Today I will show up.
I will show up for myself.
For showing up as a start.
I will begin to nurture myself.
I will begin to speak kindly.
My inner voice will be gentle and kind.
I can soothe the emotional storms.
Today I will take a step forward towards the path of self-love.
This path is overgrown with thorns and negative thoughts.
It is slowly being cleared.
Now there is a small space.
A place that is fresh and new.
I will clear more debris and travel the path back to me.
Back to the beginning.
Back to that sweet child.
I will nurture and praise her and heal those places and wounds.
Today I will begin with softness.
I will caress the curves,
The lines,
The broken places.
Today I will allow the tears to flow and wash over and renew.
I will not judge those tears or question why or where they came from.
Today I will allow myself to be present,
Mindful and without judgment.
Today I will show up for me.
Today I will let go.
I will let go of anger,
Resentment,
The could-ofs and the should-ofs and the would-ofs.
And as I let go,
I travel the path back to me.
Letting go of the sorrows and the regrets.
Letting go.
I come back to myself and celebrate the beauty and the love that I possess.
