Love others as you love yourself...
Easier said than done, right?
Sometimes we are loving others (like our kids) so much, we
forget
neglect
struggle
to love ourselves.
Can I be REAL for a minute?
I experience this too.
I make sure everyone else is taken care of...
then feel worn out.
I schedule everyone else's priorities before mine...
then feel like I have no time left.
I don't tell others what I need...
then feel neglected.
BUT
Once I made some adjustments, I found
energy
time
belonging
Loving and caring for OURSELVES
isn't selfish~it's essential!
Loving OURSELVES
will give us what it takes to love others well.
Loving OURSELVES
looks like prioritizing our needs, interests, dreams and setting an example.
When we LOVE ourselves
we are able to give others the best of us.
Isn't that what they deserve?
