Today

I want to be present in this moment.

Whether or not everything is all figured out,

without having all the answers.

I just want to sit still today.

Today, I want peace to permeate my body.

Today, I want to look around with gratitude.

Today, I want to embrace my body.

I don't want to judge myself, down myself,

or question my choices.

Today, I just want to be.

I want to be present in this moment.

I forget the past today. No shoulda,

woulda, coulda's. Today, I'm choosing to

be kind to my body, gentle with my mind,

and loving to my soul.

Today I commit to to not taking myself too seriously.

I won't measure my self-worth according to my productivity.

Today, I will acknowledge the abundance that surrounds me.

I will understand that everything I need is right in front of me.

I will clear my mind of the grind.

And show myself compassion and love.

Today, I just want to be.

I want to be present in this moment.
