Body

I take care of my body,
My body takes care of me.
The way I talk to myself,
My body mirrors.
The actions I take,
What I believe,
What I think, is mirrored,
Mentally, emotionally, verbally, soulfully, emanates through,
Even physically.
I take care of my body,
My body takes care of me,
Remember all is mirrored upon each other,
What we are around is absorbed,
What we allow affects us,
What we put up with, 
What we resist,
What we tolerate, 
What aggravates us,
What grudges we hold,
What is suppressed,
What is hidden, 
Can poison us,
Inside out, outside in.
To really honor ourselves, 
OUR BODIES,
Self-love is imperative,
Boundaries are imperative,
Honesty is imperative,
Kindness is imperative,
Forgiveness is imperative,
Listening/understanding ourselves is imperative.
What we feed ourselves,
What we give of ourselves,
What we share, 
Needs and wants of us,
All is mirrored, reflected within ourselves,
All contributes,
All is contained within our bodies.
All can overwhelm,
When we don’t choose to be mindful
Of the affects every choice holds
Immediate consequences,
The toll, the cost,
Our bodies, ourselves pay for it.
Take care of your body,
We take care of one another,
Our bodies and ourselves,
All at once... 
I take care of my body,
My body takes care of me,
This is my conscious,
Wholehearted, invested choice,
No more putting myself on the side burner,
That too, takes quite a hefty toll.
Choose Love, choose you,
A hundred thousand times over & over.
I care for you body,
We care for one another,
Let us have each other,
For all time…
