Let’s take a moment to think — have you ever loved someone? Did you think that you couldn’t live without that person? You never wanted this moment to end? Did you think that they completed you in all type of ways?
Let’s take take another moment when that loved one hurt you. Had you thinking that you were JUST OK. They never really said why they loved you, better yet show you. Always had their attention on other nouns and never giving you the same type of interest.
I know as humans we will meet someone that we will fall in love with or have love for someone. They don’t even have to be a significant other, it can be a friend or family.
I don’t never want you to think that you have to settle for someone. Change who you are completely to keep someone. Please don’t have someone use you or manipulate you to stay around.
Don’t have them say to you
“Only if you were this way..”
If you ever had to question
Do they love me?
That is an issue. Please always make sure you love yourself before loving someone else. Know your worth! Know what makes you happy. How else can you show someone how to love YOU if you can’t do it by yourself.
I caught myself relying on others to make me happy or even sacrificing my own happiness to make that other person fill special the best way I can. Not knowing that I am making myself feel worst and realizing the SMILE that I give is hiding the true pain and unhappy soul that’s within.Make sure you surround yourself with individuals that have an aura of happiness.
I want you to take these Meaning Monday’s to help you remind yourself on typical things that will keep your honest SMILE!
Activity: Make a list of 5 things you love about yourself and repeat them to yourself in the mirror. Challenge yourself — maybe it can be something no one knows about you 🙂
Set aside some time weekly for you and just for you! To show your own appreciation, it can be simple as going on a date with yourself, going to go see a movie, treat yourself to a movie massage or anything you know will make you happy.
Lastly, try one new thing each month–something simple as that new restaurant or learning a new skill.
