Falling in LOVE with YOURSELF

We know it’s important to love ourselves, right? But what does it really mean to love and care for yourself?

For some people, self-love means taking a warm bath or pampering themselves with a massage or manicure. Yet, the elusive self-love that we seek requires something deeper than anything we can “do” for ourselves.

Self-love means finding peace within ourselves — resting comfortably within the depths of our being. But a deeper inner peace requires cultivating a certain way of being with ourselves — a warm and nurturing attitude toward what we experience inside.

Being gentle with ourselves means being kind and friendly toward the feelings that arise within us. It is very human to feel sad, hurt, and afraid sometimes. It’s a sign of strength, not weakness, to become mindful of these feelings and allow a friendly space for them.

Once, I and my mother was having a talk and                                              

 I told her that – I don’t like my eyes, my eyes are a bit small and the eyelashes are also not curly they are straight.                                         

Then my mother told me that – who told you that your eyes are not pretty, they are small but small eyes look very cute and your eyes smile in sync with your lips when you smile.                                                                        

Then I replied her- You are telling so because you are my mother and to a mother her child is the most beautiful child in this world.

Then she said that this is what should matter you what your parents and your closed ones think about you, you should not bother about what others say about you because they are the who have seen you in your best and your worst. The first person whose thoughts should matter is you. What you think about yourself? How much you care for yourself? Love yourself like no one else can love you and accept yourself how you are.

After listening to my mother’s words I started implementing in my day to day life. From then my purpose of life is-

“I want to do everything in my life in such a way that it should make me fall in love with myself every time”.

So, start loving yourself from right now because falling in love with yourself doesn’t make you vain or selfish, it makes you indestructible.
