I Love Myself

Here I am, in front of the mirror, watching myself and feeling myself. Forcing this situation, which otherwise, costs me so much … In silence, I look at myself through the image that returns me and I see myself. A combination of the same and the different of each human being, but always authentic and unrepeatable, that’s how you are, that’s how I am.

I am about to travel to the deepest recesses of my being, to be sincere with myself and give myself all the love that I forget so many times and I hope that others will offer it to me in my place, disappointing me because it does not happen in the way and the way that I pretend.

And it is that, as Oscar Wilde said ” The best love story is the one you have with yourself “

I love myself as I am

I have sought this moment alone with me to tell myself what I have never said to myself and I begin:

-I love myself … – It sounds strange and indescribable to me, but I continue, it will be the lack of habit and we will have to put more enthusiasm into it.

-I love me!

I love myself because I am a unique and unrepeatable person, there is no one like me, just as there is no one like you. We may have some things in common, but we are not equal to each other.

I love myself, just as I want everything that comes out of me and what I contain, although there are times when I am not very conscious.

I love myself as I am, with my strengths and weaknesses, my potential qualities and those that I still have to polish.

I love myself, and this implies that I love my whole body, how it is and what I can do with it. What I perceive, what I hear, what I feel, what I taste and what I smell.

I also love my mind, all the thoughts that originate in it and the feelings that are born, whatever they may be.

I love and accept myself, so that I can make way to know myself in the most sincere and subtle way that I can. And thus, to be able to seek solutions with hope and courage, for each of my difficulties, if possible, but I accept the infinite possibilities that life wants to present to me.

Loving yourself as learning

By loving myself, I have learned to see crises and problems as opportunities, not stagnations. I observe what happens, what I think and how I feel, and then I like to find the learning they contain, taking responsibility for it.

I love myself, and that is why I know that within me there are all the resources and instruments that I need to survive.  I just have to discover them, beyond my resistances, and if I can’t find them, I learn them.

I love myself and I love my emotions. To the joy, the guilt, the sadness, the fear, to all those that I experience because I know that each one of them is indicating something to me to continue knowing myself, to continue working and experiencing life.

I love myself, not only me, but also my dreams, illusions, hopes and challenges. I am aware that everything is part of my being. My successes, but also my mistakes; maybe I couldn’t do it any other way due to my circumstances, but I can always look for alternatives if the situation requires it.

I love myself and therefore I do not compare myself, because it is useless to me. Comparing people or situations is useless. Neither I have gone through what you have lived nor you through mine, and from there I can say that the situations are therefore different. Each one lives them from their experiences.

I love myself, I still know that there are aspects that I do not know about myself, but I am willing to discover and build them.

I love myself, in the most sincere and real way that exists, unconditionally.  That is why I take care of myself, I forgive myself and I allow myself to enjoy myself.

I love myself and when I love myself, I can love you, him, her and the rest …
