Tag: Love yourself more

In the last two weeks I have seen two heart-wrenching videos I feel compelled to share with you tonight. Watching them is worth your time.

In this first video a few women are asked how they feel about themselves as mothers and then their children are asked how they feel about their moms. The difference is startling.

In the second video, a forensic artist asks a woman that he cannot see to describe herself  to him while he sketches it out. Next he asks someone else, who just met that same person person a few minutes prior, to describe the features of that woman and the artist creates a completely different image.  All I can say is “Wow.”

WHY?? Why are we so hard on ourselves? We need to love ourselves more! Love ourselves more than we thought possible. Love ourselves like we love our children. Like we love coffee in the morning. Like we love clean sheets on our beds and warm towels after a bath. (I really love clean sheets!) The love we feel on the inside, reflects on the outside and pours onto everyone around us. When we love ourselves the way we love others, more love flows back to us. Every part of us will feel our love and our lives will beautifully unfold in that space of love.

Do you have trouble believing that or loving yourself enough? If so, you just need a new perspective. So if you are reading this and doubting yourself I want you to know that you are amazing. Yes you, my friend. I really mean it. You’re reading this, because we are somehow connected and you are reading this because you need to know. So pay attention please. Here’s your message: Stop picking on yourself! You are exactly as you should be and created in such a way that there is no one like you on earth.  There is no one like you so please stop comparing yourself to others.  You’re doing a great job in life and you are a treasure. I appreciate you so much. So many other people feel the same. Do you? I sure hope so. See the good. Look at yourself and smile. You are beautiful inside and out.

Authentically,

Steff
