14 Days of Self-Portraiture: Day 4 ~ Darlene Kreutzer

I have always found it easy to look myself dead in the eye, smile at my reflection and smooch the air with an i love you which is why I practice self care in little happy ways pretty much every day.  I sometimes write love notes to myself on little sticky notes and hide them in the pages of my journals so I can find them at a later date.  And these are a few of my favourite things to do just for me …

skating in the frosty freshness of a moon filled evening,
skate

finding my centre in the middle of a colourful hoop,
hooping

smelling the warm worn grass of life,
grass

dancing in the most inappropriate situations,
dance

jumping until my legs turn to purple jelly,
jump

playing ever so badly,
play

twirling until i am dizzy with the colour of life,
twirl

visiting with friends that bring out my smile, *hi viv
friends

and if all else fails, reminding myself that i am worthy of a tiara and shhhhhh no one needs to know that its

plastic 😉

and. love is always found at the root. xo
