Self Love Affirmations

Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measureLove is important and it takes up  lot of our energy. We want to love and be loved in return. I think of love as a battery. When we have love, we feel powerful, energetic, optimistic, creative and motivated. It drives us forward and it is addictive. Yes, addictive. Once you feel love, you are not the same person anymore.

I realized all this about love when Eden, my eldest, was born over 25 years ago. With her, new feelings were born inside of me and there was nothing that could take those feelings away.

Before Eden was born, my first nephew, Adam was the first kid I ever loved. And I loved him so much (and still do) that I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to love my own child as much as I loved him.

When Eden was born, I was glad to discover that there is no limit to love. I loved Eden so much and my love for Adam did not change one single bit. But at that point, I realized that we bring kids into the world to learn to love ourselves. Our own kids teach us so much about ourselves and we should appreciate that.

Let me take a “selfie”

Self love is very similar to loving our kids. It is just directing the love towards ourselves. Unfortunately, we learn early on in life that loving ourselves is selfish, arrogant and negative. I am here to tell you it is not. There is nothing righteous about thinking badly of yourself. That is confusing modesty with low self esteem.

When we don’t appreciate and develop self love, we give others the power to dictate our worth and give us their definition of love. When we reject self love, we lose the ability to charge our own battery and we have to wait for others to help us charge it. We hand responsibility over us to others thinking that by giving it to them, we express love where in fact we expresses dependency and helplessness.

If you want love in your life, start with self love.
