You Have a Right to Your Joy

🔮 Nurture + Appreciate where you have been and where you are going.

Lose yourself in the sweetness of life.

I was having a conversation with someone this weekend about their relationships and how they would like to show up differently. They expressed how they want to be a bit more sought after and essentially loved, they went on to compare themselves to someone who, from the outside seems to be loved, has many friends and get’s along well with just about anyone.

My first two questions were, “how do you see yourself ? and why do you believe you aren’t receiving love and connection in the way you would like to right now?” I explained how our relationships are mirrors. If you don’t like yourself, your going to continue to attract people who don’t stick around. If you struggle with spending time alone, exploring your likes/wants, how do you expect to you show up authentically in relationships?. How will you know what truly lies beneath the surface, unless you are willing to explore it.

When we abandon ourselves, we abandon all possibility of receiving in the ways we would like to feel love, companionship, connection and community. I am well aware this isn’t the case for all, there are some that hold on tight to anything they can grasp onto and adapt, out of fear of feeling lonely, judged, unwanted, unloved etc. but those are unhealthy attachments and an example of living out of alignment.
