Love myself
Submitted by Gloria on Wed, 07/18/2007 - 10:18pm.The first step to moving forward in your life is to love yourself.
As women we are conditioned to give give give and we often forget to take care of ourselves. My life changed when I decided to love myself as much as I love my children. It opened up my heart to an incredible life and it gets better every day.
I would love for you to begin this morning.
Look in the mirror and say "I love myself".
No one is watching or listening. If it's easy for you to do, you are on your way quickly. If it's not as easy for you to say "I love myself", please do it anyway. I promise you that if you do it every day for 21 days, you will begin to believe it. That's the important part of it. You are tricking your brain to love your self.
Forgive Myself
Submitted by Gloria on Thu, 07/26/2007 - 2:05pm.I forgive myself for anyone that I have hurt intentionally or unintentionally. I know and accept that I can't change the past and have a beautiful future I can control. I promise myself that I will learn from my mistakes and be aware of how I can be better. Some of the things that I forgive myself for are or were not my fault. Now that I love myself I understand how important it is to forgive myself so I can move forward with my life. I let go and release myself of all that needs forgiveness. I forgive myself.
I Am Grateful
Submitted by Gloria on Tue, 08/07/2007 - 10:33pm.Today I am grateful that I woke up healthy. My legs and arms are attached, but most importantly, my mental state is normal. These are the advantages I am grateful for to begin with. I am grateful for my life, I am intelligent and I am a good person. I am grateful for my children and my family.
Look around. There are so many things to be grateful for. I begin my day with an attitude of gratitude, and I am blessed with more to be grateful for.
I am grateful that you are reading this. You are making my dream come true.
Please add comments and tell me what you are grateful for.
Get Support
Submitted by Gloria on Sun, 09/23/2007 - 12:27am.I've learned a valuable lesson. I am not alone. I don't have to do it alone. When I have fear I go to those who love me. I ask for help. I ask for guidance. I've put my pride aside and accept the loving support and guidence from friends, family and even strangers. Sometimes the answers appear by reading what I've written in my journal. I am open to receiving and open to understanding the messages. It feels wonderful and warm to know that I can count on you for support. Thank you.
Heal Myself
Submitted by Gloria on Sun, 09/23/2007 - 12:49am.Today I make the decision to heal myself. I resign anything and everything that restrains me or keeps me in the past. Today is a new day, the day I begin to allow and accept all that heals me. I heal my heart, my mind, my body and my soul.
How do I begin this journey?
I begin by knowing that I am capable of beginning to heal. I take this step by knowing and being present with what I feed my heart, my mind, my body and my soul. I acknowledge and accept all that has kept me from healing and freely let go of it.
I am a beautiful creation, I am unique, I am all that I want to be and am free to heal.
I accept healing love, help, encouragement and support.
What a beautiful life I am designing!!!
Give
Submitted by Gloria on Fri, 04/11/2008 - 2:54pm.I give to you because I want to. I give without expectation or compensation because I accept the power of giving.
When I choose to give you my time, it's because I have it and no longer compromise myself of it.
When I give you my love, it's because I am overflowing with self love and relish in the beauty of my gift.
If I have something you need, I give it to you because I know you will benefit more from it than I will.
I give you money only if I can spare it and not expect repayment.
When I give to you I feel pleasure and empowerment.
I am a giver and the universe understands this allowing me more abundance to give freely.
