If you know me, you know one of my most FAVEEE songs is “Bloom” by blAck pARty. It’s a song of self-love and growth. Anytime I play it for my friends or family I always say something to the affect of “this song is dedicated to you guys”or “i hope your flowers bloom”.
Recently, I’ve been dedicating the song to myself.
This summer so far has been a season of growth, self-assurance, self-awareness and self-love. So far I have learned that self-assurance will manifest self-satisfaction. Assurance is, “a positive declaration intended to give confidence; a promise.”Having more confidence and being secure in myself has definitely resulted in satisfaction and comfort. Growing into satisfaction has stopped me from fantasizing about an ideal version of myself and actively begin working towards it by simply waking up early, going after opportunities, and being more in tune with what naz needs. With this season of growth, I’ve also learned that awareness is learning how to create space between my emotions and my reactions. Hoping that my flowers bloom means that I have to water them and give them sunlight. Listening to myself before I react has without a doubt led to growth.
The noun bloom means a flower, especially one cultivated for its beauty. And the verb bloom means to produce flowers; be in flower.
I hope your flowers bloom
I hope you grow up to be
Everything that you want to
For me, this season of self love means growing into my beauty (physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, all of that lol) and growing up to be everything that I want to. It most definitely is not beautiful but I know I’m growing “Into a beautiful tree”. I’m learning to soothe myself into alignment and think about how well I’ve been doing, congratulating myself for the little things and staying in gratitude.
