“If you want to love yourself
you have to live in your own body.
You can’t just come home at night.
Your morning cup of coffee,
your afternoon snack,
your shower,
your job,
the air in your lungs.
Everything you do
should be for you
and you should
make sure you mean it.
So when it rains,
you close your eyes
and breathe deep.
And when it snows,
you catch the flakes
on your tongue.
And in the summer
you take your socks off
and wiggle your toes in the dirt.
And you go to work,
and you pay the bills,
and you tell yourself,
‘This is for you, love.
Every second of every day,
is a handmade gift
for you.’”
