Picture yourself as a woman
is mindful of those who don't love well
so she doesn't set herself up
to be abandoned or misused.

“Growing into your future with health and grace and beauty doesn’t have to take all your time.
It rather requires a dedication to caring for yourself
as if you were rare and precious, which you are,
and regarding all life around you as equally so, which it is."
― Victoria Moran
