I Love Myself Enough To Change...
 I was having a talk with a family member on Saturday evening and she expressed some confusion over some spiritual understandings she had just encountered. On the one hand many of the books she has been reading suggest that we are perfect exactly as we are and we need to learn to accept ourselves without having to change a thing. On the other hand the books go on to express how important it is we make positive changes for ourselves and our lives. She questioned me on how they can be suggesting we do not need to change and then we do need to change, so I thought I would use this week’s inspiration to clarify this.
Yes, we are loveable now exactly as we are and it is most important that we learn to accept ourselves where we are right now. Divine Intelligence does not see us as anything but perfection and because we come from Divine Intelligence we can acknowledge our perfection. As we learn to love and accept ourselves more as we are today we become open to wanting to make positive changes in our lives.
Think of how you feel if someone tells you that you are not good enough and therefore you had better change. It does not inspire you to want to do good for yourself does it? But if someone tells you how wonderful you are then you want to get better and better. Like when you are in love and people say it makes them ‘want to be a better person’. The person you are in love with did not tell you that you had to change a thing, because they love YOU. However, you like the feeling so much you want to create more of it!
We are never really changing anything. In fact it is more like bringing a different aspect of ourselves to the surface so that we can do things in a more positive way than we were before. You have every possible attribute inside you right now, whether they are positive or negative attributes you can choose which ones you want to use in your life. When I didn’t love myself I used to eat a lot of junk foods which made me feel sick and sluggish. I never set out to change my diet but when I started loving myself more I automatically wanted to eat better.
You do not have to change a thing. But you can CHOOSE to. Choosing to change that which is not working in your life is part of accepting and loving yourself. Would you allow someone you loved to put up with a job they don’t like, ill health or a difficult relationship. No, of course not! When you love someone you encourage them to choose the best for themselves! So you need to choose the best for yourself also.
I have said it before and I will say it again that Louise Hay (author of the best seller ‘You Can Heal Your Life’) say’s that in her experience you can try all kinds of things to change but what works the best every time is learning to love yourself. Then the changes really do come automatically and life gets better and better.
Try this affirmation:
“I love and accept myself and it is easy for me to change.”
Have a wonderful week everyone. Take care and choose the best for yourself always.
Love and light
