Here I am, in front of the mirror, observing and feeling myself. Forcing this situation, which in another way, is very difficult for me ...
In silence, I look at myself through the image it gives me and I see myself. A combination of what is the same and different from every human being, but always authentic and unrepeatable, this is how you are, this is how I am.
I am ready to travel to the innermost part of my being, to be honest with myself and give me all the love that I often forget and that I hope others will offer me in my place, disappointing me because it doesn't happen the way I expect.
Oscar Wilde already said “Loving yourself is the beginning of a long love story”. For this reason, I searched for this private moment with myself, to tell me what I have never told myself, and I start:
-I love me ... - it seems strange and indescribable, but I continue, it will be the lack of habit and we need to put more enthusiasm.
-I love myself!
I love myself because I am a unique and unrepeatable person, there is no one like me, just as I am not like anyone else; we may have something in common, but no one is alike.
I love myself, and in the same way I love everything that belongs to me and that comes out of me, even if there are times when I am not very aware of it.
I love myself as I am, with my virtues and my flaws, my potential qualities and those that I still have to hone.
I love myself, and it implies that I love my whole body, how is it and what can i do with it. What I perceive, what I feel, what I feel, what I taste and what I smell.
I also love my mind, all those thoughts that originate from it and the feelings that arise, whatever they are.
I love and accept myself, so that I can get to know myself in the most sincere and useful way that I can; to be able to seek with hope and courage the solutions to each of my difficulties, if possible, otherwise I accept the infinite possibilities that life wants to present to me.
Loving me, I have learned to see crises and problems as opportunities and not as obstacles. I observe what happens, what I think and how I feel, and then I like to discover the lesson they contain, making myself responsible for it.
I love myself and for this I know that inside me are all the resources and tools I need to survive, I just need to discover them beyond my resistances and, if I don't find them, I learn them.
I love myself and I love my emotions: the joy, the guilt, the sadness, the fear, all the emotions I experience, because I know that each of them shows me something to keep getting to know me, to continue working and experiencing my life.
I love not only me, but also to my dreams, my expectations, my hopes and my challenges. I am aware of the fact that everything is part of me, my successes, but also my mistakes. Maybe I couldn't do it otherwise due to circumstances, but I can always look for alternatives if the situation calls for it.
I love myself and that's why I don't compare myself with anyone, because it's useless. Comparing people or situations is irreversible, since I have not gone through what another person has experienced, nor another person for what I have experienced, and for this I can say that the situations are different. Everyone lives them based on their own experiences.
I love myself, I know that there are still aspects of me that I don't know, but I am willing to discover them and build them.
I love myself, in the most sincere way that exists, unconditionally, and for this, I take care of myself, I forgive myself and allow myself to enjoy myself.
I love myself and, when I love myself, I can love you, him, her and everyone else ...
