What tone of voice I will have today
… with my husband and my little son.
How much of my kindness I will choose to use today.
For myself.
And for others.
Will I carry my pain, anger, and frustration further,
or will I go and scream it out in the garden today,
or by opening the windows somewhere between the bridges?
(Sorry, confused cyclists 😁)
So that I can carry a smile forward.
A little more peace.
Maybe a little more disarming humor.
What will matter today
is what I share with my loved ones
— because that is what I feed them.
What will matter is how much
I show them that I love them
— through gestures, tenderness, presence,
and understanding – even if sometimes I experience things differently –
by allowing them to be themselves beside me,
and loving them exactly as they are.
Even if sometimes I feel like biting them 🙂
Don’t worry… I’ll go scream it out. 🚲😂
These are not fairy tales.
This is self-management.
I process my emotions MYSELF
— I extract the ESSENCE — 3 sentences. 🙏
I say them and… I leave them there.
We give each other Time.
And Space.
We don’t have to agree on everything.
It is enough that we respect each other’s individuality and differences.
Because everyone here is learning how to be an adult,
and because of that,
our little son gets to be a child cared for by two adults.
We’re trying. 🚲😂
Highly recommended.
It’s worth it 🙂
For my own satisfaction.
