I Will Love You Unconditionally

on

Go and stand in front of a mirror right now and tell yourself that you will love yourself unconditionally no matter what.

This is my decision to unconditionally love myself. I adore both the woman I have become and the girl I used to be. In the end, there is actually nothing wrong with me. To some extent, all the negativity, bullying, lost friendships, hatred, and judgement had nothing to do with me, but nobody was to blame. I can now see that. I felt like I was missing something, and the experience broke me. I wasn’t strong enough to stand up for myself, whether it was because of how I witnessed my mother’s upbringing or a lack of confidence. I was unaware that being who I am is OK. The majority of the time now, I see a brighter version of myself. The way I am is amazing. After all, I am lovely.

I am aware that I am no longer required to defend myself to anybody who will pretend to listen. I am aware that I don’t need to inform others of my anxiety and despair in the hopes that they would be understanding. No, I don’t have to tell you why I act the way I do. I don’t have to be too pleasant or kind to you. I owe you nothing. However, I do have a responsibility to provide for myself on a daily basis with a secure and loving home within my flesh. Even when others don’t give it to me especially when they don’t I do owe myself love, gratitude, and respect. I’ve learned how to comfort myself, so I don’t need somebody to save me or make me feel better. I am happy to be here. Of course, it’s wonderful to be surrounded by good people who accept me. It’s simple to miss people that do notice you and love you for it when you don’t love yourself or know who you are at your heart.

Remember, the most comfortable option isn’t usually the best option for you. Sometimes you have to get out of your comfort zone. Sometimes you have to take a chance on yourself, even if it’s terrifying and uncomfortable. Yes, you could lose something lovely by taking the riskier option, but you could also get something fantastic. It is with this thought I introduce my new book “Choices”. Let’s make some wise ones.

    The image I see in the mirror is not me, just a flipped reflection

  4. There is nothing new under the sun. One generation and then the next. Hopefully, we will learn how failing is a learning experience. Failing to love and failing to do this or that doesn’t mean you missed an opportunity to grow. Everyone is a teacher.

      For some, love can be a distraction, as they might end up obessessing over their partner, wanting to keep them happy hence their focus on other things drops down.

      Whereas for the other lot, love is their strength. They know they have their partners support. Their partners will be their encouragement and the source of energy they need to be successful.

      When it comes to failure in love, there are ones who sulk on it forever and the others who move on. But, in the end, the ones who sulk also find their calling at some point and work towards it.

    Absolutely love your message of self-love and self-acceptance! It’s so important to remind ourselves that we are worthy of love and respect, regardless of what others may think or say. You are amazing just the way you are, and I’m glad that you recognize that. Keep shining your light and being your beautiful self!

      Thank you Noe. You are love and light too.

      I believe self-acceptance to be accepting your good qualities and letting them shine. I believe it to be a reflecting practice that makes you remember why you’re unique and that there’s no one on this planet like you.

      We shouldn’t fixate so much on our flaws and shortcomings, but rather shift the focus to look at all the great features, gifts and passions we already have.
