I Bring You A Promise Of Peace

Practice Self Compassion

Sometimes, you have to let everything go in order to build it back up again.

“We’ve been taught that self-compassion can undermine our motivation. We were told if we are kind to ourselves, we’ll get lazy and we won’t try hard enough to achieve goals. This blocks our ability to be compassionate with ourselves.” Tree Langdon

When I fall apart

Deep forgiveness rises up

Making room for love

Sometimes life tumbles us, polishing off our sharp edges and sanding our surfaces until we are a different person.

Sometimes it pushes us to the edge of the cliff and dangles us by our feet.

It’s only when we surrender, when we cry ‘uncle’, and beg for mercy that it might consider releasing us into a new reality.
