The other morning, Johari was playing on the floor. She came across herself in the mirror attached to her playmat. She started checking herself out in the mirror. Then, proceeded to make out with herself in the mirror. Kissing and kissing. After quite a session of making out with herself, she fell back on the pillow behind her passing out from all the self-love.
It was so great to watch. I don't know that she knew that it was herself in the mirror, but...it made me think about how we are so free to love ourselves when we are little. We can appreciate ourselves and not be inhibited by all of the things that we get hung up on later in life. As a baby, it is great to love yourself. Yet in the teenage years and into adulthood we tend to lose sight of this. Wouldn't it be great to find a path where we could continue to appreciate ourselves fully everyday.
