The Journey Inward

Dear Love, what would you have me know today?

Peach, keep staying in your own lane! Focus on yourself…the things that bring you joy, the things you are working on, your creativity, your inner peace, your healing. Those are the only things you are responsible for. Self-care and self-love give you the strength to do everything you do in a day – work, friends, relationships, puppies.

My sweet, you have so much compassion and empathy, so many thoughts and ideas, and they are all wonderful. But only exercise them when asked. You have a tendency to neglect yourself while you get involved in the lives of others. Instead, Let Them. Let them have their successes and their failures. Let them get knocked down and find their own strength to stand up again. Let them do the work they need when they need it on the issues that are most pressing and relevant to them.

My love, take care of yourself, nurture yourself, love yourself. It’s all that easy and it’s all that hard.
