Mind, you have always been there for me
You were my escape as a child
You allowed me to dream
You were my bridge to something else
You were my ladder to success
You were my greatest ally
Thank you for serving me so well old friend
I honor you
You are not alone anymore.

Spirit, you truly did save me.
You made me aware that there was more than my mind could comprehend
You found me
You were patient with me
You taught me to appreciate beauty, -and you taught me what true beauty is
I always knew, deep down, that you were bigger than the box we tried to put you in.
Thank you for the unexpected journey
Thank you for the winding paths that took me to unplanned places
Thank you for calling me away from my plans and dreams
Thank you for the mystery
Thank you for the unknown that is to come
I honor you.

Emotions, I have tried my best to hold you back.
To keep you bottled up in my body
But you were always there
Sometimes I can’t control you -and it really frightens me
I catch glimpses of your power to do good and evil -and it frightens me
I don’t completely understand you -and that frightens me
You pop up unexpectedly at inconvenient times; I do not like that about you
Still, I invite you to take your place in my life
We will learn together
I honor you.

Body, I did my best to turn you off.
I did not feel you
I was numb.
I was taught that you were bad
I was ashamed of you
At times, I hated you
Maybe I was not strong enough to feel what needed to be felt, what you needed me to feel?
Thank you for protecting me in your own way
Thank you for not forsaking me like I forsake you
You do not have to be alone any longer
I am sorry
I love and honor you.

I do not understand how you all fit together
But I will no longer reject one, to accept the others
I honor you all
I love you all
I am only complete when I embrace you all
Let us commune together.
