For every stumble that life gives us, we have a new learning.
Of something if I am very clear, the person who does not accept us, cannot love us. And I go further, the person who does not love you as you are, does not deserve you.
And, many times, we do not understand that concept because, at the end of the road, we are always trying to be loved by people who do not love us or who say: I love you if you change this or that. And then we humble ourselves out of love, and we do everything to be loved, to stay, not to be abandoned…
I knows it what are you thinking, after reading this first paragraph in this post, could it be that I was wrong to choose it? I know, it hurts to accept it... but don't beat yourself up about it anymore.
Perhaps, you did not see everything clearly at that moment, and that does not make you weak, or naive. It just makes you human. Making the wrong choice does not define your worth. Learning from that, yes. You weren't stupid for loving, you were brave for trying..., and we make all the necessary changes so that the person feels pleased and, in the end, we don't understand that if they don't love us as we are, then, really, what are they wanting from us? What do they really want?
Do not let yourself do that, do not allow another to damage your integrity or destroy your process that is linked to your self-esteem and your personality. If they love you, they have to love you as you are.
If they love you, they have to respect you as you are, because if not, then why are they with you? We can all change to be a better version, but that change must come from our own perspective and our own decision to grow, evolve and transcend our beliefs, the old ones and expand the horizon to incorporate new beliefs.
I believe that God always places the right person on the path. Love is the most beautiful thing that can exist.
Learn to choose relationships that uplift you, when you feel that your bonds rob you of your peace.
Sometimes the greatest act of love is to give yourself the space to heal, reconnect with yourself and build a stronger version of yourself.
Reconnecting with yourself allows you to build connections that will accompany you to flourish 🌷
I just know better than yesterday.
Because from every mistake a new version of you is born: more conscious, wiser, more yourself. Do not lose the ability to protect yourself.
I am totally convinced that we bring love closer or further away, unconsciously, from our beliefs and from always wanting to be right.
What is good in this life is that we are adults and it is up to us to take care of our well-being.
