My Dear One,

Look into the mirror of a loving heart and
behold your Self.

Sit with your children in the space of love,
look into their eyes and behold your Self.

Rest in the place of inner stillness and spaciousness,
look around and behold your Self.

Though you've put on the cloaks of anger, impatience,
hunger and disease,
these can never be more than outer coverings.

Your beauty has been hidden at times,
but never sullied.
