We all have a tendency to sometimes associate our self worth with external circumstances. And we kind of like start thinking that we need to earn things like love, kindness, respect, time and affection. We think that we need to prove ourselves so that we have truly earned those emotions or a certain treatment in return. But this is me reminding you that that is not the case and those are things you don’t need to earn and actually fully deserve. We think that we need to be overly kind to someone, always available, never make any mistake, Constantly conscious of what to say and what not to say So that we never lose the approval of someone and what comes with it. I am aware of how much it hurts when we lose someone we care about whether it was a partner a friend or colleague or even a family member. Loss is never something pleasant. On the contrary, it hurts a lot and requires a huge adjustment phase after it. But I also want you to know that sometimes being in conditional relationships ends up costing us losing ourselves. You can be yourself and you will find people who will choose to love you, make time for you, be attuned to your emotions, care about your needs, without you doing anything to earn it other than just being yourself. You are worthy of all those things every single day even on the days when you are not feeling yourself and when your mind is playing tricks on you♥️ TheHummingBird Pascale E.
