She struggled to understand what was behind the deep non-existent word of admiration that seemed to never make it from his lips. A vibration she sought to be in front of. "Am I not worthy of compliments?" she uttered as she pondered her reflection from various angles in the mirror. "What does he not see in me?" Are his fears and insecurities that strong as to leave others feeling unattractive and unadmired?
The years past, the friendship grew, the love deepened, but the connection faded.
"Can you at least tell me I'm pretty once in a while? she asked.
"I will try." He said with hesitation, but the try never came.
"Can you roll over and hold me some time?"
"I will try." Again with hesitation, but the try never came.
A withering flower unnurtured by loved ones, we bloom, we die... Touch us like warm water on our skin, whisper a compliment in our ear to warm us like the sun. We are women, creators of life forever nurturing and yearning to be desired.
We are women, we are beautiful, we are admirable. We are worthy of compliments of admiration and worthyness. We must compliment each other more, not less.
Did you compliment someone today?
