YOU ARE LOVE

You are love
Even on the days you don’t feel loving
You don’t feel like smiling or embracing life
You don’t want to open your heart to let in the sunshine
You don’t want to be the bigger person and accept others’ flaws
You want to throw it all away
To get out, to hide from the world
You don’t feel joys from things and people you love the most
You question all your previous life decisions
You mind filled with worries and self doubts
You are far from your usual bubbly cheerful self
It’s ok to feel all this, to let it be part of you right now
No judgment, no blaming
You are allowed to feel all the emotions of the spectrum
You don’t have to define yourself by the ebb and flow of feelings
Just know that they are all temporary
Welcome them, enjoy them, be curious about them
Like a new puppy you have just encountered
Give yourself love and attention
Rest, eat, nap
Drink lot of water
Work out, dance, do yoga
Pamper yourself
Get out of the house
Get a babysitter
Get an extra large pink drink
Don’t expect others to take care of you
But most of all, just learn to enjoy the ride
