To considerate yourself every step on your way

There are only certain feelings you are able to understand after some time have passed. We all have read about love, all different kinds of love; romantic, platonic, religious, unconditional and the list goes on and on. They all have someting in common,

Which is to love, is to considerate.

Consideration is not a word you will use often or even say a lot, because it has this subtle nuanced feeling to it that is hard to master, or even to practise. It takes real courage and strength to considerate one another without overstepping your own boundaries. And it’s even harder to put this kind of love towards yourself, because with consideration- it includes feelings of forgiveness, acceptance and careful presence.

The ones who have found the magic of consideration are the ones equiped to find peace within themselves, no matter what they have gone through in life.

Those who have got slapped with cold splashes of rejections, snapped like a twig and laughed at as if you are the clown of another man’s show.

Those who began to hesitate or even become afraid to take up space to show the world who they are.

But time always soften the air and harden your power. And you also will, and I definitely am.

So, don’t store away your love, your consideration. Don’t kill your singing soul and mute your dancing voice. Because one thing is always certain: you will never need something or someone that was not yours to begin with, to validate you in any way. But you yourself- you have accompanied yourself since day zero. The day you were born. So take a good look at yourself and validate that reflection.

Tell the recital of your heart to yourself, and let the praises echo all down your gut.

Time always soften the air and sharpen your willingness into care.

So care. A lot. And don’t stop caring. Care for yourself, so at one point on in life, you will understand the feeling of true consideration. So you would apply it on every step on your way.
