When you are constantly giving
And someone is constantly taking
You have to ask yourself
How much do you give before it takes from you?...

Don't give it all away
Serve them a fair grain
Keep most for yourself
You yourself must gain
For one day you may need more
To get you out of strife
Yes share a little light
Though love yourself in life....

In teaching what I know,
Emotions from frustration to joy will flow,
If the lesson passes through the emotional filter,
The course work will be off kilter,
Each lesson pulled down from above,
Shall be a lesson of love....

When you have no words to write
And feeling much deflated
Know tomorrow you’ll be fresh
Again be motivated
Hence take a rest to be your best
Self care is quite essential
To go the distance in your life
Nurturing potential....

This time-
I choose myself.
I choose to be selfish
I choose to nourish all parts of me
I choose to nurture 
And allow my soul to be free
I choose inner calm and peace
And all that I can be

This time, I choose to be selfish
This time, I choose me....

                            God’s Synchronicity is “Perfect”

                            Sometimes, we just-
		                          “Get through it!” 

                            My pace is “Seamless”

I am always changing
If you don't like me today
Try again tomorrow

You are always changing
If you don't like you today
Try again tomorrow

Life is always changing
If you don't like it today
Try again tomorrow

Everything is changing
Today is yesterday's tomorrow
Try again...

Am I okay, or am I not?
Will anyone see the good I've got?
Life can be tough, people can be mean,
But I'll find my way, and be seen.

Labels and judgments, they're not fair,
But I'll keep going, I'll learn to care.
Even if I feel like I'm in the rough,
I'll prove I'm good, and that's enough....

And a routine, a habit not done
A self-care or a part has done
Emphasizes value of the moment
Also has a pleasant aftertaste
A process help notice a result
Embodiment to thank for oneself
A method to cultivate happiness
A journal to write indebtedness
Art for tool to thank for others
An expression to create family....

  Of all the insidious signs
    'Abortion is Health Care'
      just blows my mind

  for Abortion is 'Women's Self-Care' ~
    the infant's murder sealed and signed



  ___________________________________
  Abortion, however, is normally warranted
  in cases of rape and/or danger to the health
  of the pregnant mother......

Practise self-care,
i hear everywhere,
On the ether somewhere,
But I cast a glance,
Obesity is their chance,
I suggest this, no less,
Low fat jelly is the best,
Have you tried to exercise?
Reduce those thunder thighs,
Being fat is not self-care,
Your lard butt is not debonair,
Life coaching us with a grin,
Yes, double chins are IN!...

leave room in your heart
for even more love
like cracks in old stone
still reaching above
what’s broken can bloom
if you give it the air
what’s heavy can heal
if you’re willing to care
don’t seal every door
don’t stitch every seam
some hands were made
to rebuild your dreams
leave room in your heart
even battered and rough
there’s always more light
if you leave it enough...

before you allow 
anyone else to trespass and trample  
violate your mind, body, and soul
take time out for isolation and self care
no matter time needed; weeks, months, years
find, get to know, and accept your authentic self
learn to embody your self worth
so you can accept nothing less
than what you deserve
therefore stopping trespasser before they
trample on your mind, body, and soul....

What color are your eyes?
What weights are they showing you bear?
Your tired eyes, they're piercing,
They're too heavy to offer self care.

You're exhausted, but need not rest,
Sleeping won't cure what's hiding.
Do my eyes offer yours comfort?
Do they warm you to confiding?

I know mine just as well,
I'm aware mine paint demise.
But I don't mind so still I ask,
What color are your eyes?...

When you nourish yourself, your life will flourish
Love yourself as you would love others
You deserve to feel fulfilled and self care gets you there
Make time to relax and for things that you enjoy
Simple things can make all the difference, let there be light
You will see the weights will fall like autumn leaves
        - problems will wilt and you will bloom -

The clouds looked like a sailboat in the sky
Sailing across blue color, like the vast sea
There was no sand, shells or seagull to fly
Just a sailboat above green valleys and trees

This feeling of sailing can be found anywhere
Sky to water, you can catch a view any day
Nourishing visions to see with self care.
Some day you will be sailing, certain of the way

The traffic of life's busy inventories 
restrains this need for solace--
how the accounting of hours untamed
induces an onslaught to my self-care;
 
how much longer must I invest on time
which steals the leisure of hearts' meeting,
the thrill of flowers in bloom?--
if so, can toxic moments be measured 
by all demands of the day
when in the end, nothing really mattered.
