You are special, unique, a sparkling diamond. Beautiful, smart, warmhearted. You have many wonderful qualities, many strengths, a few endearing weaknesses, you are an all-out wonderful human being. Someone special.This is a deep conviction of mine about human beings. But do you believe that too?<\/p>\n
To be small is easy and comfortable. You cannot be this, cannot do that, and you may be keeping a long list of deficiencies \/ shortcomings on yourself.Know what? Write them down, all your shortcomings. And then shred your list, with pleasure and pure delectation. Because the list is not right. The truth is:you are special.<\/p>\n
American author Marianne Williamson spoke wise words which have become familiar to many of us. Here\u00b4s an excerpt:<\/p>\n
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.”<\/em> (From: A Return to Love)<\/p>\n That goes for you, that goes for everyone. You’re special. Become aware of your power.<\/p>\n Your own power to recognize your own value carries you much further. Anyone who appreciates themselves is also perceived differently by his\/her own partner in a partnership: The appreciation of your partner begins with you. You’re special. Go see for yourself!<\/p>\n And conversely, as long as you do not value yourself, hardly anyone else will. Not even your partner, from whom you may long for nothing more than appreciation and esteem.<\/p>\n Appreciating yourself has nothing to do with mindless egoism. Much to the contrary: those who value themselves are at peace with themselves. And he\/she who is at peace with him\/herself, is relaxed and can give generously.<\/p>\n You’re special. You may start seeing it that way too, now that you\u00b4ve given yourself permission<\/u>. And then watch your world change with you.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Picture credits: Pixabay \/ jill111<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
