by all those who have had a connection, a contact, a friendship,
an interaction or relationship with you in any way at any time.
Allow yourself to be acknowledged
for every kind deed and action

that you have ever offered to anyone, quietly,
from the kindness and compassion of your heart.
Allow yourself to remember
all the times you have laughed, giggled, chuckled, smiled
and shared a precious moment with another.

Notice what happens when you allow yourself
-- for even just half a minute --
to accept yourself exactly as you are
what happens to your thoughts, feelings and actions.
