Sometimes... you go through it. In a recent bout, that I may or may not still be in, I had to tell myself that it was/is okay to feel down sometimes. I have to acknowledge this feeling in order to process and move forward. In saying that to myself, I had an overwhelming sense that I was doing something ... revolutionary. I was making a vow to acknowledge who I was, even in this dark moment, and to still love on me.
We frequently make commitments to other people but how often do we make a promise to ourselves and honor it with the same devotion? I know for me the answer used be rarely. I want to be more action based with caring for myself. In the end, after all, the longest relationship I will ever have will be the one I have with myself. Let's make it a beautiful one.
My Vows
"Hey Girl Hey! First and foremost, you are 100% the one. Seriously. And since you are the one that I know I will be with forever, I wanted to express a few things to you so that you know what's what.
I vow to live in faith of my life's unfolding.
I vow to honor my calling and live my life.
I vow to care for you during times of hopelessness, despair, depression, disillusionment, or any difficulty that arises.
I vow to love all that places where I have not fully loved myself especially the parts of me that scared, ashamed, or simply in need of my warmth instead of my criticism.
I vow to do whatever it takes to know who I really am, and I live as that person.
I vow to work to heal my emotional wounds.
I vow to be honest with myself, even when I am immensely afraid.
I vow to fall more and more in love with myself every day for the rest of my life.
I vow to enjoy the little moments that life gives me.
I vow to love my life, even on the days I struggle.
I vow to work hard.
I vow to cherish the people that are on this rollercoaster life with me.
I vow to not let my past hold me back from my future.
I vow to count my blessings each and every day.
I vow to thankful and practice gratitude daily.
With this I embrace the with all that I am and all that I will be forever and always. Yours truly."
