“I like you just the way you are”

“I like you just the way you are”
.
This is one of my favorite quotes from Mr. Rogers
.
I think about it for family and friends, patients, anyone...
.
That might seem easy in happy times
.
But in difficult times, too
.
I like you just the way you are
.
I like you for you
.
There is no other you
.
No matter what you’re going through
.
You are loved just as you are.
.
I think of this during tough times in the day
.
Maybe one of the kids is in a bad mood
.
(Maybe I’m feeling moody.)
.
But just like when you’re in a bad mood, you don’t always want to be quizzed about it
.
Like something is wrong with you
.
But the thing is, *there’s nothing to fix*
.
>> Emotions are like the weather
.
Like clouds
.
With time they pass
.
>> Especially if you let them
.
Instead of trying to control them
.
>> By approaching with compassion, patience, and understanding (and oh my it’s so understandable right now)
.
Offer gentle, calm support
.
>> Keeping in mind the basics needs of rest, food, and water
.
(Smoothies can help, too)
.
>> And love, love, love
.
Without worry
.
Because I love my person just as she is
.
Any moment, anywhere
.
Not dependent on what she feels or does
.
Simply because she is
.
You can’t fail being you
.
It’s impossible
.
Let your kids know that
.
And show them how to love themselves without condition
.
By loving yourself no matter what, too
.
Sending big air hugs,
Dr. Dijamco
