Hello everyone, I want to talk about the importance of loving yourself first. It seems like so many are looking to experience more love in their lives. Unfortunately, they keep looking outside of themselves to receive it. I was sitting in Starbucks reading and I could hear the conversation of the 2 women next to me.
Normally, I tune everything out around me, but one of the ladies was talking so loud that I couldn't avoid the conversation. She apparently was going through a breakup and was venting to her friend about all of the things her ex had not done for her. He did not pay enough attention to her, he did not seem to care about the things in her life that where important to her, he did not make her feel happy any more, and the list went on and on.
As I listened, I wanted to ask how did she fulfill those needs within herself. I am not claiming to know the full facts of her relationship, but too often, people want someone else to "carry" their emotional load for them or keep them entertained.
Relationships are not perfect. We each come in with our own dreams, hopes, and issues; some simple and some more complicated. This is why it is so important that we love ourselves first and foremost. Not in a selfish way, but in a way that cherishes, honors, and respects who we are. If you take the time to treat yourself beautifully and stop seeking approval, entertainment, or validation from another person. It enables you to get through the rocky moments that most relationships go through. You are able to maintain your personal power and emotional well-being. And guess what, it also encourages the person you love to treat you better as well.
Relationships are an amazing and interesting part of our lives. But, if you remember to appreciate, like, and love yourself independent of what someone else may or may not be doing for you. You will discover ways to experience more happiness. And if you do, then you are definitely living within your Goddess power. So, give yourself an hug and...
Have a sensuous and sexy day,
