Befriend your body. Rewrite the story of your life.

When you’re not sure and not sure when you’ll be sure.

When you’ve given all you can.

When your dream doesn’t have a place within theirs.

When there’s no other option.

When you want to keep something for you, without apology.

When it’s over, really over.

When your body screams NO, but your mind says “should.”

When you’ve tried to say yes, but it’s not working.

When someone reminds you that you can.

When you know what you want.

When you’re gritting your teeth and enduring it.

When it’s not clear what they’re asking for.

When what they’re asking for is clear as day, and they know it.

When your yes has changed its mind.

When you see your image in the mirror and know that the only one you can save is right there.
