Peace immediately

When you worry, you're actually not
loving yourself.

When you love yourself,
you don't beat yourself up over past mistakes.

When you love yourself,
you don't torture yourself about tomorrow,
because you know you have the resilience to be okay today. 

When you don't love yourself,
everything seems like an attack.

You're afraid that you aren't safe,
and you go into dark spaces,
trying to find the way out of
the fear.

Loving yourself immediately
brings light and peace within. 

Allowing yourself feel safe
in your body,
no matter what's happening outside it.

Imagine the lightness of being.
The feeling within if you could stop regretting
the past and fretting about tomorrow -
and truly enjoy your present moment?

You would be fully alive,
rather than in a trance of worry
that steals your waking moments....
