The Biggest Loser

My beloved,

You have lost so much.  I'm not sure I recognize you anymore.  Where's all that baggage you carried around?  There's so many pieces of you laying about.  Broken pieces that don't seem to fit anymore.

I remember each piece being chipped off, until nothing of you remained.  I saw you trying to pick up some of those fragments.  Wondering where they'd ever fit in the first place.  Questioning whether the loss was worth the wreckage.

I saw you looking at your reflection.  Baffled by the person staring back at you.  So much the same, yet everything different.

There is nothing left of you.

Oh my beloved, you've lost so much.

You've lost...self-doubt, painful memories, self-hate, bad habits, regret, anger, bitterness, lies, control, resentment, jealousy, selfishness, burdens, double-mindedness, fear and you.  You've lost you.

You've allowed yourself to be emptied.
To decrease.
You've given your life.

I see the scars you bear from the great losses you've faced.
Such beautiful scars to remind you not of what has gone adrift, but of all that you have gained
through the undoing of yourself.

I see you my champion.
My warrior.
I see why you are so unrecognizable.
I see all the loss.
I know what you had to relinquish.

You've lost so much.  

Now all I see is YOU ♥

Love your Father, who is so proud of you and sees so much of Himself in you ;)
