We show up so deeply for those in our lives, but sometimes we forget to show up for ourselves. we love others so unconditionally, but sometimes we forget to give ourselves that same love. we forgive others for being human, for making mistakes, but we rarely do the same for ourselves. we speak kindness into those we love, we celebrate them and encourage them and we only ever want for them to have the sunniest, most beautiful, kind of happiness in their lives, and yet, we don't afford ourselves the same tenderness. we don't celebrate ourselves the way we celebrate others.
We have the capacity to be our own safe havens, we have the capacity to be our own home, we have the ability to encourage and care and love, but somewhere along our journeys we convinced ourselves that we weren't worthy of it. that we didn't deserve it.
