🪷 Scary, Sweet, and Strange
a learning-poem about healing my habit of serving others at the expense of myself
Don’t wait for permission
or just-right conditions
to reach for what I need.
No one else can define
what I need to shine
or reach for it for me.
It will take saying no;
it will take letting go—
and soothing my nerves through the change.
Let them have their feelings;
let me have mine. Healing
is scary, sweet, and strange.

I love the rhythm of this! And the message, of course! 😁
