“I take pleasure in my transformations. I look quiet and consistent, but few know how many women there are in me.”
― Anaïs Nin
What varieties of yourself do you take pleasure in?
2 thoughts on “The Many Inside”
There are times when I want to feel very gentle to myself and times when I want to be the same for others who need a compassionate gift of caring. Other times I feel that it is necessary to be assertive and declare that something needs attention, sometimes immediately, in order to avoid a disaster or a serious misunderstanding. Both, I think, can be part of the same personality and are useful to maintain and use when appropriate.
Thank you for this. As I listed the varieties I take pleasure in, it motivated me to make more time for some of them that I don’t bring out as often as I’d like.
