Self Love

luck feels good

If you love what you are

Just enough

You will find what you need

With a little luck

and a tremendous amount of patience

It might work out

Possibly

It could be worse

We could be all Alone

Together,

Forever

(it could not be worse)

Permanently

For many reasons, the act of self-care is highly important for anyone in this life. Even the smallest things, they never have to be major tasks. Just stepping outside to enjoy the weather or listen to the sounds of nature. Simply getting out of bed and making something to eat. Take a moment to slow down and enjoy being 'in the moment'. There's never any need to rush everything...just be patient with yourself.

You should read my poem about self loathing.

Thank you for reviewing. You're right about stepping outside. Touch the grass, breathe the air... it's pretty beautiful out there. It's very beautiful.

You mentioned we met at some earlier time...what was your original profile name?

It takes a lot of patience and forgiveness.
We're our "own worst enemies" sometimes. That expression is so true.
I really like this one of yours.

You can't feel the real human love if you don't first love yourself. Self love is the key to experience. No one can truly share what you feel outside of your brain. Sharing that with others is just luck, romance is a scam. Humans will love humans if they feel it is a good human, or at least that's how it was supposed to go. Love has become a commercial, another advertisement. Have you ever seen the movie Blade Runner 2049? The AI girlfriend that the replicant has something to say about modern love... just say the right words, love and consciousness... just say the right words? maybe.

Yes, I have seen the movie. Great movie!

Denis Villeneuve is one of my favorite directors. I have a deep affection for his work. The movie Arrival changed my life (slightly). I think he is one of if not the greatest living filmmaker alive. Christopher Nolan might have something to say of course.

[Papaya]

As a Canadian I'm partial to Villeneuve.

[Davidgeo]

As a fan of art all of us should be partial to Denis. Directors like that don't really exist anymore.

What a deep yet very meaningful poem..... Perfectly penned!
Self love/care is so important now.
The world often seems tough however it's just a matter of patience and self love to get by a little easier.
Take care of yourself first.
