I Saw Myself in a Way I Never Have Before

“I think I saw the entire world within myself somehow. I just had the most profound experience after showering. I had my hair wrapped up in a towel, not a trace of makeup and sat down at my vanity to put on my lotion. As I popped on a heart chakra healing song (never have before), I began to look at myself in a way I never have before. I noticed the lines in my neck, the roles on my stomach, the rose color of my cheeks, the shine of my forehead. I felt my heart beat very deeply, my hands holding one another, and I looked into my eyes as tears came falling. I felt like I was looking into the eyes of every woman. That’s the only way I can describe it. I felt completely flooded with compassion for myself and every single person, even the people who have done the most unthinkable things to me.”
