✦ Self Love

Human beings fly into each other’s arms because they are afraid of each other, the master afraid of themselves.

And why are they afraid ?

Man is only afraid when he is not attuned to himself. They are afraid because they never made known to themselves.

Love is the only thing that keeps us going and makes us less robotic in a materialistic world which demand us to hustle, ruminate and function like we are programmed bots. It is said that every relationship we have in our lives is a mirror of the one we have with ourselves.

We all like to grow on love, but the question is — do we produce enough for our own selves?

self love isn’t really about pampering oneself.

It is loving ourself, on the days when you don’t look at yourself at mirror, being kind to ourself; only when you are kinder to yourself, you can be kinder to world, putting yourself first, listening to your unsettling emotions. Accepting our imperfections and keeping demons in check.

I’m still struggling in the process of truly loving myself. There are days where I’m able to genuinely laugh with my friends, while there are also days where I can barely muster a smile.

“Most of us remain strangers to ourselves, hiding who we are and ask other strangers hiding who they are to love us”.

Loving ourself is a pathway to knowing ourselves, if we don’t know ourselves, we can’t love someone else.

You don’t need any person, place or thing to make you feel whole. Be your own companion and you never be alone. “What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.”
