I don't have the luxury of emotionally falling apart. I don't have a mom or a lover who can pick up the pieces. So if I seem surprisingly grounded during a time of crisis, it's because I need to be. I can't feel sorry for myself because I need to plan and ration meals. No one can meditate for me. No one can yoga for me. No one can make daily gratitude lists for me. I have to do these daily exercises for myself. And if I feel bad because I chose not to take care of myself and expected someone else to fix me, I have no one to blame but myself.
Happy memories:
the smell of apricots. the smell of summer.
Today's affirmation:
Other people's problems are their responsibility, and I am my responsibility. Judging others takes precious time away from my self care.
Today I will focus on shifting my pattern of:
wasting even a single moment judging the behavior of others
I am grateful for:
insight, solitude, food, shelter, stories, ancestors, healing, self love
The person I am becoming will experience more:
unshakeable inner peace
I have an opportunity to be my future self today when I:
rise above the chaos around me by modeling mature behavior
When I think about who I am becoming I feel:
strong.
