sometimes i forget how many times iβve picked myself off the floor, how many times iβve washed away smudgy makeup and put myself to bed. how many times iβve said no to something unhealthy. said yes to something good. how many times iβve treated myself with kindness and patience. i forget how many times iβve tended to wounds and made peace with my own anger. if i was taking care of a body that was not my own, iβd believe i was doing everything i could. so hereβs to remembering that iβm doing the best i can.
