In this episode, we review the poem "Love After Love." You will learn: The Importance of Self-Recognition: The poem emphasizes the necessity of recognizing and greeting your true self after periods of emotional struggle or loss. It speaks to the significance of self-acceptance in the journey of love.Embracing Solitude: Walcott invites you to understand that solitude can be an opportunity for growth. Rather than viewing time alone as loneliness, you can see it as a chance to reconnect with yourself and cultivate a richer understanding of who you are.Nourishing Self-Love: The poem metaphorically illustrates the act of ‘feasting’ on your own life, suggesting that you should cherish your experiences and emotions. This nourishment lays the foundation for a healthier relationship with yourself, which in turn enriches all other relationships you have.The poem:"The time will comewhen, with elation,you will greet yourself arrivingat your own door, in your own mirrorand each will smile at the other’s welcome,and say, sit here. Eat.You will love again the stranger who was yourself.Give wine. Give bread, Give back your heart to itself, to the stranger who has loved you all your life, whom you ignoredfor another, who knows you by heart.Take down the love letters from the bookshelfthe photographs, the desperate notes,peel your own image from the mirror.Sit. Feast on your life.”So, take a few minutes today, sit with yourself, and feast on your life. Recognize the beauty of who you are, and remember that understanding yourself is the first step to truly loving others.Blessings! ♥️Dr. Mensimah ShabazzFor One on One Consultations: Schedule a free 30-minute consultation: https://www.mensimah.com/harmony-consult or send Email to: [email protected]/support our channels:Join our Reflective/Inner Work Platform: https://mensimah.com/compose-a-new-narrativehttps://www.patreon.com/mensimahshabazzphdContact Links:Website: https://mensimah.comInstagram: @mensimahshabazzphdYouTube: @mensimahsroundtableShop: https://shop.mensimah.comDonations: https://mensimahs-round-table.captivate.fm/supporthttps://www.paypal.com/paypalme/MRTPodcast🙏🏽 Embark on a transformative journey in this powerful show that explores women's spirituality and the Divine Feminine, as it delves into the wisdom of the Soul, guided by the nurturing presence of the Divine Mother, to empower self-esteem, self-worth, and spiritual transformation through profound soul work and sacred wisdom.
