From the work "I Me Wed"

http://www.freewillastrology.com/beauty/beauty.main281.shtml(excerpted from the revised and expanded edition of "Pronoia Is the Antidote for Paranoia")Thank you Madeline for turning me on to it... good stuff to chew on as I plan my proposal and eventual wedding to myself.Now hold your own hand. Either speak the following declarations or use them as inspiration to create your own:I love everything about me.I love my curious beauty and my amazing pain.I love my hungry soul and my changeable games.I love my mysterious gambles and my humbling brags.I love my blooming darkness and my burning flags.I love my flaws, my gaps, my catalytic fears.I love my puzzling insights and my scary frontiers.I love my wrongs, my rights, and my ambiguous dreams.I love my courage, my cowardice, and my elaborate schemes.I love everything about me.I love everything about me.Now either make these promises to yourself, or use them to inspire your own versions:I will never forsake, betray, or deceive myself.I will always adore, forgive, and believe in myself.I will never refuse, abandon, or scorn myself.I will always amuse, delight, and redeem myself.Beauty and truth and love will always find me.Chaos and wilderness will always sustain me.I'm the fire and water and earth and air that are forever fresh from eternity.I'm a perfect creation and everything alive is naturally in love with me.Now if it is your will and desire to agree to the following vows, say them:I vow to treat myself with adroit respect and resourceful compassion and outrageous grace.I pledge to see my problems as tremendous opportunities and my flaws as imperfect talents.I promise to shower myself with rowdy blessings and surprising adventures and brave liberations.As long as I live, I vow to die and be reborn, die and be reborn, die and be reborn, over and over again, forever reinventing myself.I promise to be stronger than hate, wetter than water, deeper than the abyss, and wilder than the sun.I pledge to remember that I am not only a sweating, half-asleep, excitable, bumbling jumble of desires, but that I am also an immortal four-dimensional messiah in continuous telepathic touch with all of creation.I vow to love and honor my highs and my lows my yeses and noes, my give and my take, the life I wish I had and the life I actually have.I promise to push hard to get better and smarter, grow my devotion to the truth, fuel my commitment to beauty, refine my emotions, hone my dreams, wrestle with my shadow, purge my ignorance, and soften my heart -- even as I always accept myself for exactly who I am, with all of my so-called foibles and wobbles.I pledge to wake myself up, never hold back, have nothing to lose, go all the way, kiss the stormy sky, be the hero of my own story, ask for everything I need and give everything I have, take myself to the river when it's time to go to the river, and take myself to the mountaintop when it's time to go to the mountaintop.I vow to love myself unconditionally and unconventionally until the end of time and beyond.I now pronounce you your own husband and your own wife, married to yourself in the eyes of the Divine Wow or Yo Mama Nature, whichever you prefer, as death and life and death and life bring you together, over and over again, in new and exciting ways each time, forever and ever, until the end of time and beyond.You may kiss yourself on your own lips.
