On Self-Love
Posted on May 25, 2020 by Samar Hajir, One of Thousands of Life Coaches on Noomii.
"We hurt ourselves the most, when we love ourselves the least"
When you don’t love yourself, you hurt yourself & others.
When you don’t love yourself, you don’t truly live, you just exist.
When you don’t love yourself, you feel replaceable and disposable & you are always thirsty for acknowledgement from people & even after you get it you don’t believe it.
You doubt your success & you don’t accept the credits for your achievements as true.
You see the Irony? you live your life seeking approval and assurances from the world & when you receive it you don’t believe it ! Because deep down, you feel unworthy, unwanted and unimportant & no amount of external praise can change that.
When you don’t love yourself, you hurt those who love you.
Why? Because they are extending to you a feeling that is foreign to you.
What love is to you when all you have inside you is self-hate and self-doubt?
When you don’t love yourself, you reject to believe that you are actually love-able.
When you don’t love yourself, you attach to those who reject and hurt you.
Why? Because they confirm to you what you know about yourself: you are reject-able.
Self-love is a life-long journey, hard, draining and lonely.
Why lonely?
Because it’s the path less traveled. Because not so many people are capable nor ready to be honest with their mirrors…
