Self Love

Self Love -No one is coming to save you!

Self love; do you know why they call it self love, because it is you doing the work, the healing, and the loving.

No one is coming to save you! No one is coming in a shining suit of armor, or is going to love you OUT of being a "beast". Just you, that’s all you got, and truly that’s who you need.

If you can’t learn self love and except yourself, all of you, no one outside you is going to be able to love you enough. It will never permeate though the hard shell you have protecting your heart. It’s doomed to fail, because only you can release the wall, and let love in.

Some of us have deep wounds, the ones I like to call sacred, the ones that come from having lived though great trials of the spirit. Fears the hunt us, and shadows that stand over our shoulders and block the light, even our own inner light. And if we don’t learn to self love our hurts, our wounded parts of ourselves, we will never truly know the gentle sure embrace of true love.

I don’t think any of us want to do that to anyone else or to ourselves. To make someone a hostage. So stand up for yourself, accept yourself as you are now not how you wish to be.

You are so precious; treat yourself with kindness and care. Exorcize your demons, laugh in the face of your fears. No one is going treat you worse then you yourself, so stop and treat yourself with devotion. Know that your self love is the most precious thing you have to give!

“Got a heavy love, rolling like thunder, coming from above, make sure you’re under, falling like rain, burning like fire, Got a heavy love. Do you think you’re strong enough?”
Serena Ryder

Step up, take risks show your self love, hell we all know that unrequited love is a bitch! But even if they’re not the one, by speaking up and showing up, you are showing the universe and proving to yourself that you are ready for love. And by keeping it to yourself, you are basically saying: “I am not good enough” or “I don’t deserve love.”

“Ever tried? Ever failed? No matter try again, fail again, fail better.”
Samuel Beckett

Most of us know the joke about the old man who kept praying to win the lottery. And when he died and got to heaven he complains to God that he never won. Then God replied, "Son, you never bought a ticket."

So go buy your dam ticket, take a risk for yourself, stand in possibility for love. Start with self love, then acting and being the person you need to be to have this great love. Don’t sabotage your dreams before they have a chance to grow.

“It is safe to love and be loved in return, I am safe.”
