Tonight, I surrender all my exhaustion to the universe.


May the light of compassion cleanse the negative thoughts and deep-rooted shame.

I accept every part of myself — both the strong and the fragile.

I reclaim my right to feel self-love, even on imperfect days.

Please guide my dreams to a place filled with understanding and healing.

May I wake with a heart lighter than before.

Tonight,
May loneliness turn into peace.
May shame turn into forgiveness.
May I know that simply being alive is already of value.

And when the morning light arrives,
May I always remember—
I am worthy of love,
Exactly as I am,
Without needing to be anyone else.
