I asked Chat GPT the following: Please make a realistic image of this woman in the picture (the one with short hair) lovingly hugging the young girl depicted in the images. I barely ever use Chat GPT, but I remember a trend from a while back which promoted people to do this, it was supposed to be an ode to “My grown self is and has always been there for my child self”. I have spent the last 10 years slowly, lovingly, patiently healing and nurturing my child self. It’s been a ride… But WE have been entrusted to take care of ourselves: our bodies, our memories, our souls, our wounds. And realizing this has really freed my parents-love-starved spirit. I realized I’M the one who’s always been there for me. I can always count on and rely on me for kindness and understanding. It might sound lonely and tragic but it’s actually the most empowering feeling, because I don’t NEED others to feel loved, valued, nurtured or satisfied. Instead I CHOOSE to let others into my life and my heart and show them love and receive theirs in return and help each other out through this exciting journey that is life. This picture will be my new wallpaper❤️‍🩹🥹🏆 Have you put the work in to intentionally heal your child self?
