Health…fully…’liked’ and seen…known and needed

Sometimes, at night especially, I write a poem to my old me, knowing full well there’s many out there struggling to feel seen, accepted, adored, and belonging. We each are spiritually. Here’s a poem to you wherever you are that you feel loved…the health that matters most.

we do stuff to look good

we dont do stuff to look good

we start doing stuff to look better

we stop doing stuff to look better

doing to get

not doing to get

doing doing doing

trying trying trying

to be
to get
to seem
to need

all. out. there.

really?

if we stop dieting
if we stop seeming
if we stop trying to get what we think we are needing

if we quiet the craving
if we allow the being

we may just finally at long last ponder this

we are enough
we have all
we are loved
we are allowed to indulge . that. fact.

there’s deep ache from feeling alone
and we binge or drink to drown out its moan
or we seek to dominate the next regime
always and ever seeking something out there.
permission
acceptance
approval
belonging
wealth
or even oh mighty health

maybe just maybe there’s fulfilment right within
from healing the ache of empty…at least starting there we can begin

we lack nothing
we have all
but surely pondering that seems ridiculous or even crazy after all

or does it?

when really
there is bliss and satisfaction in a single moment of not longing
for more
for him
for her
for that role
for their acceptance
and those accolades
or that speaker gig
or more

there is deep fulfilment in this right here…
and maybe we need to speak more of nurturing this very now.

I’ve dieted
I’ve binged
I’ve starved and more
I’ve sought him
sought that
pined for them and those for sure
None of their dissing
or any of their yessing
has ever fully healed the ache of empty’s constant nesting
until
i sought
home within
where I found love and belonging and no more wanting.
but it’s work
and it’s a constant thought by thought endeavor
but each moment is holy
when we approach it as fully
now
us
being

May we each stop craving
and start being…

seen
approved
loved
adored
accepted
beloved
housed
safe
employed
tribe’d
highfive’d
front and center
starring in the role of
being.
yours truly.

Biggum luv hugs.
