Go back in time - A letter of love to myself

Go back in time
Look there again and again
See yourself
Notice the beauty you are, there.
Your crooked teeth
Beautiful smile
Almost full brows
That nose that consumes all the air
And the pimple laying there on it

Look there again,
See your size
Love
32.
34.
It don't matter
Love it.

Hear the beauty  of your brain
The life in your words
The faith in your eyes
The trust in your heart
See thine feet and how rooted they are
Witness the depth of the love despite the waves

Society's culture is for us not to appreciate who we are right there in the moment
We are always looking to be better and more beautiful
Often to our detriment
So look back,
Look again,
And consider the beauty of your old days
You were beautiful
All  along
And you missed it

Now come here my child
Come closer
Here, to  today.
See yourself
As you are.
Look deep in your lovely brown eyes
Noticed the knot on your one ear
And the beautiful wrinkles when you light up the room with your smile
Come here.
See yourself
Love yourself
