Life doesn’t have to be hard if we make that choice for it not to be. May I invite all you lovely amazing souls to make the intention of not making your life so hard from today!
You see we go through life’s many stages and in those stages, we come across murk, flowers, soil, debris, sunshine, rain, and storms; you get the gist – the good and the bad and that’s the universal law. So what if we could become weather resistant and had the ability to weather all the conditions of life – then how would life become? I guess easy, right?
My point is that until we don’t really take the time to learn to love ourselves and I mean truly love ourselves – not just a physical makeover or physical experience – I’m talking about the kind of love that brings the internal smile to external. The love from within when you see something that appeals to the eyes, and nose, creates the image in the mind, you sense the touch – that kind of love which we give unconditionally to the things and people that appeal to us. But how often does that kind of smile radiate from within when you’re in the equation? Yep! I thought so.
For many many years of my life – I never knew what self-love was and when I did discover it – I spent money on clothes- makeovers- holidays – and higher good purchase to get the feel-good therapy. Yes, this is me loving myself and I’d end up being broke because I had just spent all that money to get a quick fix. It’s just like going to the bar and getting drunk – in my case, it was comfort eating! Yeah, I remember those days – when I lived like a zombie- eating and spending and crying my eyes out because of the internal pain from my problems which I felt there was no way out!
But that’s not true! and you know it – maybe you’ve just fallen into a rut and feel helpless, down, heartbroken, lonely, not loved. Perhaps you feel there is no purpose and life is just passing. Potentially you had dreams of staying with the one person whom you trusted whole-heartedly and he/she broke your heart and now you’re afraid to make that mistake again. You feel a void a ditch that is swallowing you in.
Well, wake up! because it’s your life and like my mentor, says you are the star of your movie! You are the love of your life only if you give yourself permission to do so. Trust me take one action to start to Love yourself and if you don’t know how then Learn how to and that is when you will feel that you are truly Living your life!
And now here I am feeling rather accomplished which looks differently to everyone for me inner peace- joy-fulfilling relationships and financial freedom. All because I flipped the switch to believe that life doesn’t have to be hard and because I started to genuinely love myself- took better care of my physical and emotional needs just as I do for my kids I do the same for myself.
Don’t be stuck and try to embark on this journey on your own. There’s lots of help out there and I’ll be very grateful if you picked me to help you because I only know how to love from within and I have been there. Bounced back 10x stronger from 2 abusive marriages and all the other trials and tribulations that come with ending a relationship.
