A Blessing for Mental Health

A woman gazes out a window, resting her chin on her hand, with a thoughtful expression.

Come in as you are.
You do not have to shine yourself up
Or polish off your grit.

Make your brokenness a blessing
Never using it to harm
Or as a hardened defense.

Come in to honor life
To learn
And to teach.

Transparency opens us
Whereas hiding closes us.

Pretending reveals nothing
Whereas the truth reveals everything.

Welcome.
Come in with all that you have.
