It’s our world to enjoy and be an integral part of expressing the fullness of our divinity.
You Have to Know You are Enough, and Be Enough for Yourself!
It seems that for some of us in our fragile human condition that we spend a lot of our precious time wasted on worrying what people think of us. We are concerned about people’s impression of us and live our lives engulfed in a cloud of perpetual judgment. For the most part it started in our childhood. Concerned with pleasing our parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles, family friends, teachers, coaches- oh there is an endless list of people we probably wanted to please and be “wonderful for”. It does not serve us well and it is not healthy in the least. For those of us that are parents we have a responsibility to make sure that our children know that “they are enough for themselves and that is all that matters.
As adults so many of us still carry those feelings of inadequacy. We act this out in our lives in so many ways, but in context to yesterdays Blog on “ The Foundation of a Healthy, Happy and Whole Relationship”, this is a vital part of being able to engage in a relationship that is whole and fulfilling. We have to come to a place in our lives where we realize that who we are and how we feel about ourselves is a huge part of how emotionally healthy we are in our lives and in our relationships. It is not about trying to be a missing link that fulfills any voids in someone else’s life. We can be a beautiful enhancement to the quality of a relationship, but we cannot be held responsible for making another person as some people say, “complete”.
We have to be enough for ourselves and enough of who we are in the eyes of those people we are related to, in partnership with, in friendship with, or simply engage with. Honestly, we come here as a divinely complete package. Life happens and tries to manipulate that sense of joy and self-love. There are experiences that can either embellish the beauty of who we are or imprint something negative on our life that stays with us and plays out in ways that are not in our best interest. If we can recognize and acknowledge what those pain experiences are and work on freeing ourselves from the pain, we can begin to live in the wholeness of who we were designed to be. Believe me, it is a lie that you and I are not enough. Each of us are enough in just being our authentic selves. We are enough for ourselves and we are enough for the world and all that are blessed to know us.
So Re-Cap:Be You! Love You! Respect Yourself! Honor who you are! And be in the company of people you love, respect and accept you for who you are!
