Grace in the Growth

This is for those of us, who are sometimes too hard on ourselves and are learning to be a little more internally loving.

Self grace is not the absence of correction, it’s the presence of care.

I’m learning to meet myself where I falter,
Not with fury, but with softness.

As I recognize the areas I have been internally harsh, I fix them.

It’s like a bad weed, roots threading through memories, twisting under old beliefs, pushing through cracks I didn’t know were there.

But I no longer yank them out in anger.

I dig slowly.

I breathe deeply.

I tend to the soil of my soul so something better can grow, and keep aiming always upward.
