Loved!

Love yourself enough to not fear falling.

The child wishes to walk for babies crawl and she isn’t a baby anymore. As she tries to hold on to anything for support, she falls.

She tries again this time ensuring she doesn’t feel her legs wobble. She stands at attention and in that moment of victory she let’s go, falling flat on her back.

She may cry or laugh, that is inconsequential, oh but notice how she keeps rising.

The fall cannot keep her down. It doesn’t matter how often she falls, her goal is to walk. With wonder and awe she will get to her goal.

Somewhere down the road of life, something happens that makes her scared to try. Even though her heart screams everyday to try. Eventually life numbs the screams to a point where her own voice becomes foreign.

Somewhere, something makes her forget that she is magnificence. She believes she is magnificence, but the belief isn’t always the reality, unfortunately.

If your belief held water, would you walk on it?

No, it’s really not easy. It’s also easier said than done.

No one says it’s easy, we are accustomed to a notion that it should be easy and yet the reality of life is spread as evidence all around us. It takes 21 difficult years of her being a human before most would even consider her an adult.

But to think after working on her goals for a few months, 1 pit stop should make her fear taking the rest of the journey. A break can be good, a restructure can be useful but to completely stop pursuing herself, that, is not love.

Goals, dreams, passions these should all be centred on love, what she loves. Most times this love is a reflection of who she is, as an individual. Because when she is engaged her whole being feels alive. Because her whole being is in love.

She should love herself enough to know herself and build her life around doing the things she loves for a living. Sometimes she’ll compromise what she wants for what she need.

As long as the choice still brings her happiness. This happiness will always look like an extension of what she loves, because through it she will find lessons and skills to boost and propel herself.

Being fulfilled doesn’t mean she owns the biggest house, it means when she awakens, she feels grateful for another chance at life and another chance to use herself, which are her gifts, to bring value into the world.

Sometimes we do things not because its who we are or what we like but because its attached to a perceived value, mostly monetary. So we stop looking for who we are if at first the road doesn’t seem paved with gold and diamonds.

The gold and diamonds are available believe that but see, no one has walked your path before, so you have to walk it, clear it and if you so decide, you dig upon it. The goal is happiness so whatever you end up doing to the path led before only you, you’ll always find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

Everyday is a new day to reset and start over, don’t take the days for granted for we do not know when our time will be up and the crooked crocodile will come take us away.

Until next week, What can you do for yourself this week reflecting the love you have for yourself?
