Make the promise to always be honest with yourself, you guys. Honesty is always the best policy in terms of relationships & life’s decisions, & it is completely intertwined with self-love. Sometimes you’ll lie to yourself through thoughts & actions, to numb the pain or to avoid feeling a certain way just so you can get past a chaotic time period of your life. You need to feel these unwanted feelings though, even if it may bring you pain, scary change, or derail you from your otherwise balanced & effective self. The truth hurts, but it will set you free.
I made mistakes not being honest with myself & in turn, missed out on opportunities for integrity, self-love, & the ability to love/appreciate others on a higher level. Choosing to work harder towards being honest with yourself will bring you happiness, even if it seems like a bad day. If ever you feel down & out, you can find comfort in knowing that this is your real & true self, feeling all these feelings, rather then choosing to push them under the carpet for another day to deal with. The truth to me, has never been so comforting, when you trust that facing it will make you happy.
Happy Sunday you guys! - A
