Above all, do not lie to yourself.

To Love Yourself

How can you not love yourself? I mean, it is You. You live with yourself, you live with your body, your mind, your soul. Can somebody really not love themselves? 

I am at a point where I believe I stopped loving myself. Why? Because I am living to make everyone around me happy. I keep trying to please people “I love” just so I can feel loved back. That is wrong. I now know I have been doing wrong my whole life. I now have only one little person to live for, my daughter, my 3 year old little princess who is following my steps, mine and only mine. 

I reached a point where I will start prioritizing my feelings, my wellbeing, my own happiness over everyone else’s. 

What did I miss that I let this happen to me? Still trying to figure that out… However I know that I want to be happy with me, happy in my own skin and transmit that happiness and confidence to my mini-me. 

Its hard at my age to communicate in such way with my own soul, but not impossible. Do I believe in God? I do. I am stumbling with my faith right now, but I scream in my soul that the God in which I have believed in with my heart and soul my whole life sends me a signal that I am in the right path here -You know, God, what my heart desires at this point-. 

I have gone through several difficulties throughout my life, like every human being I suppose, my issue has been that I have not been able to deal with my emotions. Why? I never had the courage to really and genuinely LOVE MYSELF! 

This is day ONE for me to start loving me and only me! I don’t want anything to stop me now. All the love I have inside my heart, soul and body I will give it to ME!!!

I know many of you out there are experiencing similar things… Would you like to share? You are not alone. I am not alone :)
