How much do you love yourself? This is one of the questions that people often find too easy to answer. Some are too quick to say that they love themselves, but often fail to show how much. How do you show yourself that you have all the love for it? Do you have a self-love ritual that you follow?
Where Does Self-Love Begin?
Love, in all its forms, all begins in one's love for himself.
When you know how to love yourself unconditionally, you will be able to wholeheartedly accept who you are and appreciate what you have become. You have this positive notion about life in general, and that happiness is a fundamental aspect of who you are.
You will feel good about yourself because you deserve it. When you are coming from this perspective of self-love, you are embracing self-acceptance and self-respect. In turn, you will live a life that is more fulfilling than it has ever been.
From there, you also begin to build strong foundations of a loving relationship with others.
What happens, then, if you don't love yourself as much? You might end up projecting that lack of love for others. You have that tendency to become too clingy or attached to someone, attracting negative energies into the relationship.
You also tend to blame others for how you feel. In worse situations, you end up in a destructive relationship with others that could leave you broken.
What Does The Absence Of Self-Love Mean?
What does it mean to face the world without the right amount of self-love?
For a woman, it could mean finding herself in an unhealthy relationship, and yet she will choose to stay. She will become too afraid to be alone and would rather be in an unhappy relationship with someone.
In other instances, a woman who doesn't love herself as much tends to allow others to take advantage of her. She would be in a workplace where her strengths, skills, and talents are undervalued. And yet, she would not have the guts to resign, because she feels she won't be good enough for any other job.
Lastly, for a woman who does not have enough love for herself, she tends to put other people's needs before hers. She will think that constantly choosing to love others is like loving herself in the process. But she, too, knows that this is not true.
In the end, she will find herself exhausted, burnt out, and just tired of how she feels inside.
