Self-Love

Self-love has many faces, but at its core it is the willpower to allow every thought to become your reality, without judgment.

When you love all your thoughts as you would your children, you are at peace with all that you are. It takes the will to love everything you have become, in every moment.

And why is it so important to love all that we are?

Because when we do, we rise above social consciousness, its opinions and its endless criticisms. We no longer need approval. We rise above all judgment and the illusion of time. We live to fulfill ourselves, listening only to the voice within and following the path of joy, where we come to know all that exists.

The self is divine. Every moment we live in love for this God within us, everything we do to find our joy and light, flows from our being and enriches the divine mind. In doing so, we nourish the consciousness of all humanity, giving all that exists a chance to rise in vibration and draw closer to the Creator.

When we live in love for ourselves, which is love for the divine within us, we leave behind the dense existence of the herd, with its addiction to approval, judgment and the unhealthy tension of suffering and pain.

This is how we become a great sun lighting the way for everyone.

When we are love, every moment of our lives gives us the freedom and the opportunity to express joy, and we know that nothing is ever worth separating ourselves from the happiness and joy within us. There simply is no such thing.

There is no greater love in life than love of the self.

There is no greater love. From embracing the self comes a freedom that gives birth to joy, and from that birth the divine becomes visible to all.

The greatest, deepest and most meaningful love is love for the pure, innocent self: a wondrous, hidden being dwelling within walls of flesh. When we love who we are, we also come to recognize this wonderful essence behind every face and within all things.

Then we will love the way the divine loves, and it will also be much easier for us to forgive and to see the divine in all of life.

When we love what we are, nothing is impossible or out of reach.

When we truly love ourselves, we live in the light of our own laughter and always walk the path of joy. When we are in love with ourselves, that light, that unified force of happiness, gladness and being, radiates out to everything around us.

When love overflows within our wondrous being, the whole world becomes beautiful, and our lives become meaningful and full of joy.

This is a joy that comes from within us, and like the love of the Creator it uplifts and glorifies all of life.

There is no greater purpose in life than to live for the love and fulfillment of the self, and that can only be achieved by taking full part in this life and doing the things that bring us happiness, whatever they may be.

Who is to say whether it is right, or whether it is not good for us?

The divine will never say so, because it will be in every direction we turn, and it is also the result of everything we experience.

Never ask others what they think. They will tell you things that serve them, not you. And what could they know about joy when they create the same limitations for themselves that you do?

The more moments you spend being joyful, loving yourself and allowing yourself to be, the closer you are to the force of life itself.

In our robotic age, life itself is so underappreciated that everyone seems to be looking for anything to do but live this divine gift. Yet our first and foremost reason for being here is simply to live, without excuses, with joy and gratitude.

To days of self-love.
