I’ve learned to love her. She’s not perfect, she may not always say the right words, walk the right way, or sing the right song. Her smile still feels a little awkward, her back a little too arched. But I love her all the same, her courage to dream, her capacity to love, her heart that cares even when it hurts.
This view reminds me that I’m living an answered prayer. A reminder to be kind to myself, to sit fully in the present, and to embrace every moment of becoming.
