Help Me Lose my Mind - SOHN Remix | Disclosure

Goddamn this was a good weekend. Beautiful friends, a beautiful wedding, and ridiculously beautiful New York weather. This weekend was kind of magical. As Becky and I were getting ready for the wedding, we had one of those rather intense conversations about love, life and how none of it makes any sense to me. As we talked, she described her friend who, throughout her escapades in life, honors her creativity. I found that word to be so fucking fascinating and so fucking strong. I had never thought of honoring any part of myself. I had never thought of honoring any aspect of who I am or what I do…and it felt like a slap in the face. It’s one thing to be confident in who you are and what you bring into the world. But it’s a whole other thing to honor it. It’s a whole other thing to treat it with respect and care. Because to honor something means you treat it in high esteem. It means you don’t take it for granted. It means you’re in this tangible state of awe that makes you appreciative of having this thing in your world. I once told someone that I couldn’t have them in my life because they didn’t treat me with respect and care. Looking back, I guess I was asking them to honor me. But, it’s hard to ask someone to treat you one way, when you’re not even doing it yourself. I think I might need to start thinking about things, and myself, a little differently.
