I apologize to myself for holding myself
back even though I know what Iโm truly capable of
I apologize to myself for making
myself cry at night
I apologize to myself for
treating my body like a
dumpsite for garbage instead
of a temple highly regarded
I apologize to myself for making
myself smaller so that others can feel bigger
I apologize to myself for choosing to see
whatโs lacking in me and not
celebrating everything I have that makes
me beautifully me
I apologize to myself for speaking harsh words like:
๐ ๐ฐ๐ถโ๐ณ๐ฆ ๐ถ๐จ๐ญ๐บ
๐ ๐ฐ๐ถโ๐ญ๐ญ ๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ท๐ฆ๐ณ ๐ฎ๐ข๐ฌ๐ฆ ๐ช๐ต
๐ ๐ฐ๐ถโ๐ณ๐ฆ ๐ข ๐ง๐ข๐ช๐ญ๐ถ๐ณ๐ฆ
But choose to tell other people:
๐ ๐ฐ๐ถโ๐ณ๐ฆ ๐ถ๐ฏ๐ช๐ฒ๐ถ๐ฆ๐ญ๐บ ๐ฃ๐ฆ๐ข๐ถ๐ต๐ช๐ง๐ถ๐ญ
๐ ๐ฐ๐ถโ๐ญ๐ญ ๐ฎ๐ข๐ฌ๐ฆ ๐ช๐ต
๐ ๐ฐ๐ถ๐ณ ๐ง๐ข๐ช๐ญ๐ถ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ด ๐ฅ๐ฐ๐ฏ'๐ต ๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ง๐ช๐ฏ๐ฆ ๐บ๐ฐ๐ถ
because you of all people
know how itโs like to be the villain in
your own story and donโt want
others to feel the same.
Oh, to wish well for
others and not wish on
my own stars first. . .
I apologize to myself for giving love to others
but not give that same love back to myself.
-- I will accept my apologies and forgive
myself so that I may learn
how to love myself properly

Life is measured by the small, slow moments that take up most of our day; it's found in the banality we take for granted in the everyday . . .
The in-between feeling of waking up and falling asleep in the morning
The walks in between two places
The savoring of meals in the middle of the day
The comforting silence shared between people before long dialogue
The car rides en route your destination . . .
Is it not in the process of leaves falling that you are totally entranced?
Is it not in the stillness of the world when you begin the relish life?
Is it not when your feet walk to a song's beat when you most feel alive?
Is it not in the process of cooking your favorite meal that intensifies your hunger?
Between day and night is when life is most lived. So live out your best life and enjoy the in-betweens because once you reach the end, your journey is over.
