Happy Winter Solstice 2022 🌟


This is the solstice, the still point of the sun, its cusp and midnight, the year’s threshold and unlocking, where the past lets go of and becomes the future; the place of caught breath ..

~  Margaret Atwood 

I owe myself an apology

For all the times

I tore myself apart.


When I neglected my own needs

Lowered my standards

Berated myself

And put myself down.


For the self-sabotage

I continually inflicted upon myself

And the times when I apologised

For being who I was

And expressing myself authentically.


And... I owe myself

The permission to start anew.

To forgive myself

For the battles I fought

That weren’t mine to fight


For all of the love

That I failed to give myself

And for the times when I failed to realise

That rather than being broken

I was worthy of value, respect

And beautiful, brilliant things in life


And that how I treated myself

Dictated how others would view me

And in turn, behave toward me


So by showering myself

With love, kindness, forgiveness and respect

In turn, I could pave the way

For others to do the same.
