Life is not fair! Why is my nose so big? Why am I so fat? Why am I so tall? Does any of this sound familiar? At some point in our life we come face-to-face with what we have been given and we are not very happy about it. As we mature and gain life experience hopefully we grow above these things and learn to accept ourselves the way we really are.
Learning to love ourselves goes hand-in-hand with believing in ourselves and in our abilities to achieve the things important to us in life. This includes the need to expose ourselves to life in a vulnerable way and learn how to become successful in our own eyes.
We all have dreams about our future and what we will be when we grow up. We want that fairytale ending to the story and some of us even believe in ourselves strongly enough to take that first step upon the heroes journey!
We came into this life with a blueprint to guide us. But we also came in with free will to choose a different way. Our hearts know the blueprint and the original destination but our minds are often at odds with our hearts and we stray into the weeds.
Often we are seduced by a dream that is not our own, one that we are conned into believing and serving, an external dream and an external authority! When we fail to listen to the still small voice of conscience and when we fail to pay attention to what is in our hearts we become lost! It is that simple! It is never right to give up our dream and exchange it for something that does not belong to us! Something that is external to us and beyond our reach!
