A Lesson In Self-Love (We all learn the hard way)
Self-care is not a face-mask in the bathtub
Although sometimes it is
It's going to bed at 9:00pm because that is what is good for me
Although sometimes 7:00pm is better
It's not binging on American Horror Story alone at night
because that shit is fucked up and makes me want a cigerette
Self-love is not eating whatever I want
Although french fries are necessary at times
It's eating food that makes me feel good, full, and healthy
and does not make my body swell and flare
To know myself is the first step in every direction
To know what's good for me is the next
Whatever provides true joy is the answer to "where do I go from here?"
Self-love is not giving myself whatever I want
It's giving myself whatever I need
And I always need joy
