‘Take care of yourself’. A phrase so often passed between us, a phrase that I’m sure is often appreciated and dismissed, not even thought about. But what if we did actually stop to consider this request? What if we stopped to realise the significance of this? Would we feel any differently about ourselves?
For someone to ask us to take care of ourselves, they have to love us in such a way that they care for our wellbeing – it matters to them how we are. Think of it as a prized possession they are entrusting to our care, they love it so dearly that not only are they trusting their precious thing to you but they are also showing you how much they love you.
So if they think you’re worth taking care of, believe it yourself. And look after yourself. They think you deserve it, and so you should.
