A message to my smaller self :)

 

I hope you wake up with a big smile on your face, like mine, whenever I think of you.

 

I hope your morning shower reminds you of dancing in warm summer rain.

 

I hope the smell of your first coffee makes you close your eyes for a moment, and inhale deeply.

 

I hope you look into the mirror and see just how wonderful you are.

 

I hope you give yourself many, many hugs, before leaving home, not because you have already achieved something big today, but simply because you love yourself as much as I love you.

 

I hope you choose the outfit that makes you feel most comfortable and gorgeous, rather than the one you think would be the most suitable.

 

I hope the sun warms your precious face, as you walk to work. 

 

I hope you feel fulfilled by the work you're doing every day. 

 

I hope your lunch tastes as good as all the food you cook for your family.

 

I hope you take little breaks throughout the day, just to sit back and admire yourself and how far you've come.

 

I hope the beauty of the sunset brings tears of joy to your deep, chocolate eyes.

 

I hope coming home to your sisters and mom makes you feel ever so loved and appreciated. 

 

I hope working out calms your mind and gives you endless gratitude for your strong body. 

 

I hope you catch yourself singing lightheartedly, as you get ready for bed.

 

I hope you remember how important you are to so many people, how many lives you've touched and changed to the better.

 

I hope you feel that kind of tired, where your whole body and spirit seem to be oh so peaceful.

 

I hope getting into your bed feels like sinking into a gigantic cloud, leaving all your worries behind.

 

I hope, as you close your eyes, you thank yourself for always trying your best, and for remembering that you are HUMAN.
