A Woman’s Love Letter to Herself

I REFUSE to

Ridicule my tears,

Deny my distress,

Be at WAR with my body,

Denigrate my appearance,

Excuse my valid feelings,

Disregard my intuition,

Not obtain help when I need it,

Not speak out when necessary,

Not assert personal boundaries,

Not value myself as a human being.

I WILL

Believe in my heart’s calling,

Honor my past tribulations,

Be gentle towards myself,

Evolve my spirit every day,

Remain humble with grace,

Recognize my inner beauty,

Nourish my body internally,

Care for my overall health,

Accept myself as I am right now,

Be at peace with ME.
