In Love With Me
Your most important relationship
I was prompted for this post in a challenge
On how to fall in love with yourself every day,
This one’s going to scrape the bottom of the barrel
As I’m my own worst enemy in every way.
***
Well firstly, I know I’m a hard worker
With plenty of attention to detail,
I’m an especially good mother
Good at all it entails.
***
I’m loyal and I love deeply
I’m generous to a fault,
I’ll help in any way I can
I believe I’m worth my salt.
***
So I should be able to apply these traits
To help me fall in love with me,
I’m going to endeavour moving forward
That loving myself is a daily decree.

Back in 2020 (yes, THAT 2020), I took my very first steps towards becoming an international traveler. I was 25 years old, and up to this point, the furthest I'd ever traveled alone from my home state of New Jersey without my family was to West Virginia.
