Loving yourself is not a destination to be reached, but a journey. You can choose to love yourself in this moment; and your life, in this moment, will be magnificent. You can choose to doubt yourself, blame yourself, criticize yourself and in this moment, life will seem very hard and unfair.
When you choose to love yourself, something amazing happens…
You are no longer afraid to lose people or things.
If you truly love yourself, a relationship will not be stressful. You will give of yourself, everything you have, because you know of no other way when you love yourself, and if the other person doesn’t take it, then you can move on and keep giving who you are, until one person will take the gift. You will not be lonely or afraid of rejection, because you will spend time with yourself and you will enjoy it just as much as spending time with someone else.The fear of not being enough disappears.
There is no need to be liked by someone else, or fill a gap in someone else’s life. Those things are impossible to try to achieve anyway, but once you love yourself, you stop trying to be those things. You are simply who you are and you enjoy being that. When there is joy and spirit in your being, others will sense it and not be able to get enough of it.With no fear of rejection, or of not being good enough for a job, a relationship, or for achieving your dream, life will open tremendous gifts for you. When the fear and the doubts are gone, when you choose to love yourself and accept yourself, then the Universe will match you to situations and people that are just right for you. There is no need to impress, to change, to appear to be something other than what you are.
