And I’m grateful to anyone who can do that. She is phenomenal because she has the capacity to talk to me even though we’ve never met in a language that surpasses mere words. The ‘I’ in you that you may probably spend your entire lifetime trying to figure out. It is the ‘I’ within that you may have just started to explore its existence. That part of you that lies right the centre of your chest or in the depth of your belly that when you press hard, it hurts. When I say soul I am talking about who YOU are at the very CORE of your being. Now when I say soul I don’t mean soul in the overused new-age sort of way. And if you can, leave some space between each reading, as each time a different word or phrase will embed itself within your soul. And with anything profound, you need to read it more than once for once is never enough. I encourage you to do so because these are profound and meaningful words from a wonderful poet/artist, Nayyirah Waheed. These are the colours of your self-esteem. Let these words seep deep through you, through your veins, your bones, and settle, albeit uncomfortably, in your mind. “Just because someone desires you, does not mean that they value you”.
