The extent to which I live in my head is a problem in relationships. But maybe not when it comes to my relationship to myself. Although I have always found it harder to forgive myself than anyone else. When I think about things I need, I overlook most of the details and find myself wanting.
Conversely,
I ask for the courage to open up and give my best love away, leaving space within me for whatever is left when it's gone. Or what comes.
Similarly,
I ask that the people I love and the people they love and so on until everyone is covered can be healthy, happy and free.
You know, insofar as that's something you can ask for.
