I’m not. Not ready to love myself well, even though I want to. And that’s ok.

I’m not ready to break the external cycles I’ve identified. And that’s ok, I’m working on the internal ones first.

I’m slowly introducing myself, to myself, because I’ve never been able to before. It’s never been an option to give myself the same love and patience and grace and mercy I’ve given others all my life.

Self love has got to be one of the most patience straining and testing relationships I’ve had- but I know I’m worth the effort.
