Morning Blessing

Self Care is Sacred
Morning Blessing
May the morning bring you
one clear thought worth keeping.
May you trust yourself enough
to follow what feels quietly true.
May curiosity lead you somewhere
your plans did not expect.
May you find beauty in
a detail most people would walk past.
May you remember that
your life is shaped by what you notice.
And may today give you
at least one reason to look twice.
