The journey of “self-love” (returning to the inner home)

A journey of self-love

Have you ever felt alienated from your own body? Or engaged in a cold war with the mirror, searching for flaws before virtues? Losing self-love is the greatest alienation; it's living in a state of estrangement from the only person who will always be with you. It's that harsh voice that judges you for every mistake, prevents you from celebrating your successes, and makes you prioritize everyone else's needs over your own, for fear of not being enough. This is the essence of an eternal reconciliation agreement. The effect you will experience is a warm sense of belonging to yourself; as if you were traveling in a strange, cold land and have finally returned to your warm home. You will feel a genuine desire to embrace yourself with all your flaws and triumphs. That exhausting need for external acceptance will disappear because you have become the source of love and acceptance. The true effect is evident in the serenity that fills your features, in your ability to set healthy boundaries with a confident smile, and in your enjoyment of your own company as your best friend. You will discover that you have been looking for love in all the wrong places, while it has always been beating inside you, just waiting for you to turn your attention to it.
