love myself the way I am today

Today her eyes are green
Her hair is auburn with little touches of silver at the temples
The skin on her hands is a bit dry
She is relaxed today, having worked only half a day on the holiday.
She is excited to be able to have lunch with her son

I love her.

I like that about me.

Before I start my new job on Monday. Yeay!

I love myself the way I am today, and it isn’t hard. This is an easy day. Full of who I am. Feeling fine.

So glad that I didn’t give up on myself this winter when things were NOT going my way. Sometimes it is better that things don’t go our way… just because there is another way.

Way opens.

This is a big deal for a woman with chronic endomitriosis.

I am caring, loving, and sometimes rather witty. My hair is that pleasing auburn I try to acheive… not quite like in the glory days… but with new side locks of silver, an accessory of middle age. I love me. I keep becoming what I want to be… I am who I want to be. Nice feeling.

I really needed to show myself some unconditional love when times were challanging, and I did. It was and is totally worth it.

Could I still stand to lose a few pounds? Maybe.
Do I still have a lot to learn? Absolutely.
Have I finished all of my lifetime goals? Not a chance.
Am I perfect? Heaven to Betsy, why would you want to be?

It’s all about the journey. With unconditional love I take the next step.

Gotta love being me right now.

I have a wonderful job Monday and Friday working in the Foreign Languages department at the local University. It takes me 4 minutes to get home! Everyone is educated and grateful for my help. Everyone is nice.

Next, I just got another wonderful job supporting children in the county Tuesday thru Thursday, which starts on Tuesday! Sweet. Everyone I have met there is also very nice.

Lucky me to have lost that job last fall. Otherwise I would have never found these two gems. (More $ too)

You’d better believe it.

I feel beautiful today. I feel like my time is come… it is NOW. The birds sing my name and the flowers open for my pleasure.

I want to feel good because I (finally) have landed a job. It is part-time AND temporary, BUT it is a job.

Then in trying to tell my love, instead we have a minor row.

I feel like crap.

Ain’t unconditional love for yourself grande?

Although we are still in the sun sign of feet (Pisces), I have supplanted a photograph of my own head (which I took a week ago) to replace my usual foot shot. Just to kind of prove to myself that I am okay to look at, and for others to see. Amazing to think that I have often felt ugly! Oh my. How our thoughts destort our own image.

Love yourself today… dare to show your own head!
