The Most Important Relationship

I have a friend who yearns for a relationship and believes that only when he finds it will he then be truly happy and complete. And he is not alone. I’ve heard too many people expressing the same sentiment and searching for that special someone to salvage their lives and bring it to next level. So far the search has been elusive and brought mixed and sometimes unexpected results – not the heavenly bliss that they envisage and had hoped for

  It’s about

 Falling in love with 

Yourself and 

Sharing that love 

With someone who 

Appreciates you, 

Rather than looking 

For love to 

Compensate for a 

Self love deficit 

 The most important relationship to have is the one that you have with yourself and then GOD. But the topic on GOD is too big and will be dealt with on another blog post. I will instead concentrate on the relationship we have with ourselves.

 You have to be your own best friend. You have to enjoy and relish your own company. Nobody can affect you as much as you can. That said, the most important relationship to have is the one that you have with yourself. The book “You Can Heal Your Life” by Louise Hay was instrumental in my journey to self-love.

 I have nurtured and cultivated a warm and supportive relationship with myself. I want to be my own best friend. That was the goal. It wasn’t always that way in the beginning. Like everyone, I have my shortcomings. However I’ve learnt to love myself, warts and all.

 We are not equal in terms of talents and abilities but we are equal in the eyes of GOD. In terms of soul language, no one soul is more worthy than another soul. We are here in this world for some special purpose and learning. I am aware of my worth, my unique contribution and special place in this world.

 With this self-love comes confidence, the confidence to be who I am with no apology. I love the freedom to be who I am - the ability to express myself freely and act in a way that is real and authentic. It sets me FREE.

 And one more thing, be POSITIVE.
