What do the ones we love need from us most of all?
They need us to stay the GEM that we are – by
taking care of ourselves on the inside.
Interestingly, this person’s name is EVE.
EVE is a reminder of the first woman. EVE can
remind us that our first and most important
task is to honor the essence of who we are -
(or who we are becoming)!
Taking care of you can be tough when times are
toughest.
It’s when it seems hardest of all to care for
yourself that it’s more important than ever to
take care of YOU.
If you neglect your own emotional needs and
don’t listen to your own heart, then you won’t
be nearly your best at taking care of the people
you love or the things you care about.
When you don’t take care of yourself; when you
put yourself last on your own list – then you open
yourself up to getting sick or down emotionally or
in some other kind of mess.
We all have our Moments of Truth. Everyone goes
through tough times, even if it doesn’t always
seem that way.
If life gets too far from “normal” or “happy” for
too long, it can be debilitating.
We often don’t know what “normal” and “happy”
are – until we no longer have them.
Tough times make us appreciate how wonderful
it is to have “ordinary” times. What might
otherwise seem ordinary is reason to get
down on our knees in thankfulness.
You owe it to YOU to be YOU. Remember that
people love you for who you are. Don’t let
yourself slip away – when you need your own
strength the most.
The people who love you look to you for
your strength and kindness and gentleness
and humor and goodheartedness (or as much of
those as you can rustle up) :) .
Life is short, so contribute your best while
you can – your good spirits and your encouraging
words – even when it’s not easy to do.
“Beautiful” is in your soul – in the person
who treats the others who cross your path in
a way that makes them feel happier, seen,
heard, encouraged, and respected.
Often we also need to forgive others who
are not able to give these same things
back to us – because they’re so consumed
in stress and have lost the big picture.
How does this relate to your love life?
When it comes down to it, there’s one thing
that is more important than anything else:
The ultimate thing a man needs from the woman
he loves is to be able to Trust Her Kind
Heart.
If he has faith in that, then he has faith
in you.
I have heard from women whose trust has been
stomped on – and who have decided to step
away from hurtful relationships – wisely!
Don’t let that stop you from being you or
from taking care of you. That’s how to be
strong and face what life brings us – finding
solutions and making things work – or
sometimes – just hanging on until the storm
passes. Whatever it takes!
Have a great day – and keep your flirt on!!
