Ability to Self-Remember

Self-remembrance can take many forms. It can look like remembering, honoring, and acknowledging all that has been given to you by your significant relationships: parents, children, siblings, spouses, partners, and teachers. We are who we are in part because of those who raised us, taught us and loved us.

Love trusts itself
to find the right words
without rehearsal
K. Bradford Brown, "Guidelines to Love"

PRACTICE: Write a love letter to one of your beloved --- whether they are alive or have passed. Express all the things they have done for you... gifted you with... and how they have loved you.
Decide what to do with the letter. Whatever you choose, it will be the right choice.

Namaste
