Comfort is a spot to curl

your body in the sun.

It is stretching well-used muscles.

It is allowing yourself to have fun.

Comfort is ha ving enough to share

with those who are in need.

It is never needing to borrow.

It is having plenty to eat.

Comfort is living sickness free,

being healthy of body and heart.

It is trusting your intuition.

It's the confidence you will choose smart.

Comfort is a car that runs

and never gets stuck by the road.

It is getting to where you need to be.

It is ease in carrying any load.

Comfort is an aesthetic.

It's becoming your most awesome self.

It is feeling in line with your power.

It's working with cosmic wealth.

Comfort is a quiet space

where the volume turns down low.

It is a trusted friend who listens.

It is the luxury of moving quick or slow.

Comfort is something delicious

that brings happy memories to light.

It is meals shared with loved ones.

It's a cozy snack in the middle of night.

Comfort is trusting completely

that someone has your back.

It's “showing up” for somebody else.

It's the sense that your life is on track.

Comfort is something that smells good,

a memory captured in time.

It's being made to feel valued.

It's arriving right on time.

Comfort is knowing you matter.

It's an uplifting voice in your ear.

It's feeling supported by family and friends.

It's keeping your priorities clear.

Comfort is feeling welcomed,

like everywhere you go, you belong.

It is never needing to explain yourself.

It is being where the earth makes you strong.

Comfort is a door to lock

against the fears of the mind.

It is feeling safe from predators.

It's claiming space and time.

Comfort is a helping hand

when you are in need.

It is unconditional kindness.

It's a hug that brings you peace.

Comfort is an animal friend,

a genuine, loyal companion.

It's exploring around in nature.

It is trusting with abandon.

Comfort is shade on a heatwave day.

It is water when you thirst.

It's warm soup on a cold night.

It's shelter before a rain cloud bursts.

Comfort is a shower

when you've gone too long.

It's the luxury of a clean towel.

It's serving salad with tongs.

Comfort is clothing that suits you

wherever the journey leads.

It feels like a million dollars

to be proud of your look and your deeds.

Comfort is setting good boundaries,

protecting your sacred space.

It is grounding through self-knowledge.

It is resting yourself from the race.

Comfort is a place to be

where you are allowed to rest.

It is knowing the rent is paid.

It is believing you are protected and blessed.

Comfort is dancing to music you love.

It's the sound of a strong heart beating.

It's the energetic communion of touch.

It's where body and soul take meeting.

Comfort is someone who gets you,

who can follow the paths of your mind.

You may not agree on everything

but they won't misinterpret your vibe.

Comfort is relief from pain

when you have suffered long.

It is solace when you are grieving.

It's an old, familiar song.

Comfort is abundance

and the generosity to give.

It is knowing that there is always enough.

It is an active desire to live.

Comfort is your children safe,

healthy, happy, and wise.

It is knowing you taught them joy.

It is seeing hope in their eyes.

Comfort is feeling good in your skin.

It is loving who you are.

It is fearlessness towards others.

It's remembering that we are all made of stars.
