Today just wrap your arms around yourself. Go ahead, do it. Love on your sweet imperfect self, sway back and forth, and dance to this little tune by Joss Stone. When I first started developing a real SELF, this song made me smile from the inside. She says, "I've got a right to be wrong. I've been held down too long. I'm flesh and blood down to the bone, not made of stone. I gotta sing my own song. I might be singing off key, but it sure sounds good to me." Gotta love it! We are human beings. We are supposed to make mistakes. We are supposed to sign up for crap, then halfway through realize it's crap and change our mind. We have the right to change our minds halfway through the crap. We have the right to have unconscious selfish motives, then forgive ourselves and ask God for healing. We have the right to mistakes and to be wrong. Enjoy this, friends, and give yourself some sweet love today.
Melissa, this post has touched me along with the video. I needed this today! Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a wonderful post. I found myself sitting with my hands open, wanting to hold it all, closing my hand around it to keep it...
ReplyDeleteThank you
I have been working so hard to find my "self", too.
Having to work hard on this. So many emotional/bad things going on right now and my first instinct is to take it out on myself. One day at a time. I will make the effort to take care of myself, not take it OUT on myself.
