“It’s the fire in my eyes, 

And the flash of my teeth,   

The swing in my waist,   

And the joy in my feet.   

I’m a woman

Phenomenally”- Maya Angelou

If I had to choose one word to describe you, I would say phenomenal. Your heart is phenomenal. Your spirit is phenomenal. Everything that you encompass is phenomenal. For that, I write this post with extreme admiration. I never told you this, but you are my HERO. Every day you save me. I am saved by your infectious laugh that accompanies me as you dance or as you indulge in karaoke. You save me with your supersized heart that loves me without condition.

Dear self, today I am impressed by you. Today you gained the confidence to share this letter with the world, and for that, I eulogize you. I know it is arduous for you to talk about yourself. So, I hope that you continue to do things you are not comfortable doing.

Today I celebrate YOU. I celebrate who you currently are, and who I know you will be.
