Choosing You
Taking time to rest
is not a sign of giving up.
Needing space to breathe
is not a lack of compassion.
To be everywhere accomplishing everything
is honestly not reality.
To disagree with someone
is not to disrespect them.
To allow your boundaries to be compromised
is not an example of love.
You cannot love others more
by allowing yourself to be loved less.
To want to be seen and heard
is not to lessen the experiences of others.
Your experience doesn’t have to match other’s
in order for you to deserve to speak.
Understand that “The only way you’ll succeed…”
merely means “This is what worked for me.”
Try things, learn, explore.
Make your own path.
“Requirements” are often just recommendations.
Live your life knowing you are worthy of love and respect.
You don’t prepare to serve humanity by giving time to yourself.
Loving yourself is serving humanity.
You do not fill your cup merely to serve others.
You fill your cup because you deserve to be loved.
May you experience abundant joy this week as you seek to love others and as you choose to love yourself. You deserve love, honor, and respect. Thank you for being with me on this journey. If my writing is resonating with you, I would love to have you share it with others.
Have a wonderful day,
Susannah
