Say Word

A colleague had this edict attached to her outgoing messages and it really spoke to me today.  When I worry about loved ones, I am very guilty of neglecting my own health and I've been warned about this repeatedly.  Guess this was the reminder I needed today as I sat considering skipping a meal to sit somewhere and fret.

"I Promise to Take Care of Me.
For myself and the people that love me.
I promise to take care of my health.
When I am in good health,
I am a strong woman.
When I am strong I can help myself and the people around me.
I deserve to put myself and my health before anything else.
I will spread this message to all of the women in my life who
need to take care of themselves.
This is my promise."
