Love Yourself

When you look into a mirror who do you see? Does the child who wanted to be a baseball player, a doctor or ballerina look back at you and smile and tell you you have done great for yourself? Or does a stranger full of remorse, sadness or anger stare back at you then walk away? Is there even someone in your reflection?

No one is perfect. Everyone has had their series of broken dreams and negative situations. Does that make you a less than lovable person? No.

Everyone is worthy of love.

Let go of those broken dreams! Say goodbye to those who have hurt you or continue to do so! Bury those memories that only cause angst and sadness? Why carry around a corpse if there is so much life around you?

Remind yourself on the daily you are worthy of love. Every time you pass a mirror make sure you look your reflection in the eye and remind him or her that you love yourself, that no matter what you are proud of who you see! Imperfectly perfect lovable you.

Be your biggest cheerleader, love yourself, and the universe will love you back.

Powerful message and great photos to accompany it @artedellavita! Thanks for sharing.

Thank you, to get a compliment for my photography from you- well I am flattered to say the least :)
I hope you are having a lovely day!

And thank you once again.

I enjoyed your presentation, and you are correct, you must let go of the past mistakes and the wrongs done against you, because that is the only way you can move forward, but I want to state that coming to love yourself if a process, and one that happens when you realize that there is a God in heaven who loves you, and He believes that you are very valuable; if you ever wonder why you are here, and what your purpose is in life, ask the Lord, with a sincere heart, and He will reveal Himself to you; once you know the love of Jesus Christ, loving yourself comes naturally, and you will be able to love others as He loves them. selflessly and with His whole heart!

Ever so true!

I wish you a lovely day and I appreciate you reading my blog today :)

No problem God Bless You!

Perfect motivation! Loving yourself it`s the only way in life. If you don't love yourself, nobody will.

Perfectly said!

Very lovely post and message. I learned a long time ago to let go of the past to live a happy life. Unfortunately I know people who can't and are miserable. Your pictures are beautiful as always.

Thanks sweet friend!

Worry, regrets and hate only pave the way for disease and negativity.
Let's say no to all of that haha

Lovely day to you :)

That's beautiful words and very inspiring thank you my dear friend!🌺

You are very welcome pretty lady!

I absolutely love that mirror.

Thanks! It was an estate sale score :) About 95% of everything that fills my home are old treasures that are new to me :)

Lovely day to you friend!

Love it. :) I love estate sales.

:) yes! Love them!

Today I will get me a nice haircut. Thank you for asking. :)

You are welcome!

Make sure they give you a scalp massage! Barbers and not typically cosmetologists offer those, you lucky men!

Thanks. I went to a cosmetologists. So no scalp massage. That does sound good though.

This reminds me a little bit of the old Norman Rockwell painting of the little girl on the verge of womanhood with the fashion magazine on her lap and her doll discarded near her feet. So many hopes and dreams.......
Lovely photos as always!

Thank you as usual⭐️
Yes, nothing wrong with dreaming _"Dreams are necessary to life." But we should not love ourselves any less if our dreams Do not come true☺️
Lovely day to you⭐️
