For a long time I could not answer the question many ask themselves “DO I LOVE MYSELF ENOUGH?”
- Enough to love myself after having someone else mistreat me?
- Enough to refuse to accept anything less than what I know I deserve?
- Enough to settle?
- Enough to live unapologetically with or without the acceptance of others?
- Enough to challenge myself physically, emotionally, and spiritually?
- Enough to love myself even if many do not have the same type of love for me?
- Enough to rise again after each time life knocks me down?
- Enough to forgive others who have done wrong by me?
- Enough to understand I am not a perfect person & acknowledge I am not?
- Enough to let the past go & concentrate on the future in order to make it better than the past?
- Enough to “THINK” before I “SPEAK” out of my mouth?
- Enough to “turn the other cheek”?
- Enough to not pass judgement on others as if I am the Judge as well as the Jury?
- Enough to understand it’s not what THEY call me, its only what I myself answer to?
- Enough to see past my failures & see them as only stepping stones to something much greater?
- Enough to want only the best for myself?
- Enough for admitting I do have flaws but not allowing my flaws to define me?
- Enough to understand everything do not need a response?
- Enough to constantly see the rainbow after each storm I enter into?
- Enough to respect the person I am so that others can follow my lead?
- Enough to walk away gracefully from anything that is not for me?
- Enough to not allow anything toxic around my personal space or in my circle?
- Enough to learn from my mistakes in order to not repeat the cycle?
- Enough to know “crying is not a sign of weakness”?
- Enough to allow my FATHER to remove anything that is not for me out of my life?
- Enough to allow *Jesus to take the wheel*?
- Enough to no longer allow others to dictate my feelings and/or emotions?
- Enough to see my beauty even if my mind want me to “THINK” differently?
- Enough to see the positive in every situation?
- Enough to put forth the effort each & every morning?
It took me a very long to become the person I am now. Many nights I found myself finding every excuse there can be under the moon to avoid answering the questions I have posted above. Being able to now answer each one motivated me to see that I am indeed headed in the right direction & stay in this positive headspace at all cost! I spoken about “🔜SIGNS🔜” in the past and being able to answer the questions was A HUGE ONE!
Now is the time to ask your own self the same exact questions or write📝your own set of questions….DO YOU LOVE YOURSELF ENOUGH? Comment below👇 to share a few of your answers💬 with me. I am all ears👂!!!
I love the quote about allowing ourselves to be both a masterpiece and a work-in-progress. Often we think we’re not “enough” because we’re still works-in-progress, but we must love ourselves enough to believe we are *already* enough, and more so–we’re masterpieces. Thank you 🙂
