sending love and hugs to my younger self

sending love and hugs to my younger self who internalized

negative messages about her body and about femininity.

I love my body, I love being a woman, I love feeling feminine.

my body is a temple, my body is sacred, my body is art.

feminine, masculine, androgynous.

equal and differing and combined.

there is a balance, a variety,

they are natural and subjective.

my body is part of me, my womanhood is part of me, femininity is part of me,

and there are so many more "aspects" and "energies" of me.
